Haha Ralph you're going to upset some people.
the presentation has been circulating around for a while, and people should read it but the TLDR is that while the refractive index of fluorocarbon is closer than monofilament to water, it is not close enough to make a significant difference, unless the line diameter is extremely small. Unfortunately the math in the presentation is too advanced for me so I can't properly critique it.
I've never seen any credible evidence demonstrating fluoro is 'invisible', and claims to such are from those trying to sell it. Many anecdotal stories how someone switched to mono and suddenly started slaying, so feel free to take that for what it's worth.
Many years ago, I worked at Science World where we had a demonstration where a glass figure would disappear when placed in a water/mineral oil mix. The refractive indexes of the glass/fluid were very closely matched, and the figure truly became completely invisible. It was a very cool demo, the most complex and flashiest figure would just vanish. At least to my eye, a simple demo of fluoro and mono in a glass of water shows that fluoro is in no way invisible. I might be able to convince myself that the fluoro is somewhat harder to see, but that's probably just my confirmation bias, or other factors like line tint/diameter etc.
However I think that if it gives someone confidence, then they should 100% absolutely use fluoro. Visibility-wise, it's not going to be any worse than mono, and may have marginal benefit in certain water and light conditions. At worse you spend a little $ for a little extra confidence, which is not a bad thing.
just my $0.02
