sure visibility is a major concern but so to is a soaking wet track....not sure i entirely follow the criticism here.

Agree. Doesn't matter what path they follow, there will always be occasional situations where one detail of that path could be handled better by another solution - at some point, things won't be optimal in all respects and that's where compromise on the best balance (of probabilities) comes into play.
If wider tyres means that the cars can move towards downforce playing a smaller part in overall performance, I'm all for the wider tyres - even though they do throw up more spray in a damp / wet race situation.
