40 hour MEIR

Single pilot ops requires 40 hours of p1 multi time under IFR, can someone verify that when referring to the IFR is this flying 40 hours flying under instrument flight rules or does it mean 40 hours flight time flown with sole reference to instruments.

As technically 40 hours of flying under IFR could be flown in VMC, therefore you may not necessarily fly under sole reference to instruments.

You could fly according to VF rules, carry a safety pilot and fly under screens / foggles, therefore are flying with sole reference to instruments, therefore by doing this could you then build up the 40 hours?

Could anyone clarify?
