This should be sorted out beyond doubt . Personally , and I could be wrong , I don’t think is too practical to use the VMC reference to get back on the ground once you have lost all comms . The one and only time I could possibly think you would be ok is the loss of comms right after departure, provided the airport in question has approach radar ( so they can see you squawk 7600 and prepare for the possibility of you intending to return ) . If you do it in any other portion of the flight or when that airport does not have an approach radar , no one really can guess your intentions and plan accordingly and it could get messy.
Just my thought
