Evidence is used to prove what people can or can't do in battle. If there is no evidence of them being able to, assuming they can anyways is silly.

If we don't base all our arguments on evidence or lack thereof, then we will be giving the characters abilities they do not have.

If you want evidence, Sam and Hearth stayed in one place when they were invisible hiding from the squirrel. Instead of moving towards the portal when they couldn't be seen, it wasn't until the squirrel was gone that they ditched the cover and went through the portal.

Annabeth uses her hat in many occassions. Sam doesn't. There are many times Sam's hat could've been useful but she doesn't use it. This suggests it wasn't an option because, if you has the ability to go invisible whenever, there is little stopping her.
