Then I'd say the alternatives are either

1) no inferences at all

2) find a solution for inferences to show up on recent changes on related items

Of course if we want to have inferences 1 is not really an option :) and if two is possible, and I don't see why it should not be, then this solves the (not) hiding problem.

Has anyone argued for performing inference and then hiding that it happened?

Some did, I think. :) Anything that doesn't create a recentchanges entry is "hiding that it happened".
