Should we just remove `org-truely-invisible-p'? Or at least correct the spelling of its name ("truely" should be "truly")?

I feel slightly reluctant about removal. If nothing, this function can be a reminder about visible-mode and keeping it has little downside. Though if others think that removing would be better, I would also be
fine with it.

Renaming sounds reasonable. Just need to define obsolete alias for the
old name in org-compat.el.

Could you prepare a patch? Having a patch may encourage more feedback.

Sure; please see attached.

Best regards,

Subject: [PATCH] Mark function obsolete & fix spelling of its name

* lisp/org-macs.el (org-truely-invisible-p): Move to...
* lisp/org-compat.el (org-truly-invisible-p): ...here, and add...
  (org-truely-invisible-p): ...this compatibility alias.

There are no callers of this function in Org Mode, nor in current
Emacs (on the 'master and 'emacs-28' branches at least).  We discussed
whether to remove it entirely, and for now seem to have tentatively
decided not to remove it.  See this thread for more details:
