The thing that has helped me the most in using MLO was the realization that Andrey didn’t design MLO the way I would. So the best thing I can do when trying to solve a problem is figure out how Andrey meant that particular problem to be solved.
As you have noted Context hours only work to "not show up in a todo view" when only that context is assigned to a task. If multiple contexts are assigned and one of them covers that time slot, the task will show up. To me if you want to do what you have described you should do it the way Andrey designed MLO. Create a second ToDo view that doesn’t show the context you want. Once you have that view it is far simpler to change ToDo views then it is to go into contexts and modify time slots. In the “add advanced” feature add rule: Context does not contain “XXX” Then save that view as a separate ToDo and you have what you want. Also to start with all tasks in the ToDo view, you need to select Action Filter all and check the “Include closed” checkbox under contexts.
