I'm struggling to understand what the question actually is.
Sometimes survival means being seen to be rescued. Sometimes it means sneaking around bad people to get to a place of safety. Sometimes it means sufficient stealth to obtain dinner. Sometimes it means making your goodies look a lot less desirable to 2 footed predators.
Seems to me that in general it's good to be low profile. Woodland camo BDUs aren't low-profile in town. Gray BDUs are pretty non-descript and low vis. Black looks a bit too threatening to wear very much of it for my taste. Dark and drab colored packs and stuff are low vis.
Carrying stuff (mirrors, hunter orange hats/scarves, reversible colored clothing) to create visibility when wanted seems like the best way to go.
I prefer to be low vis except when driving. I've detoured around unknown/hostile folks in the woods by being drab and quiet. Was glad I'd dressed low-vis that day. (outfitter known to "protect" an area of public land from the public. Would run them off at gunpoint until the Sheriff came to see him.)
