Automatic groups are intentionally hidden from the group index (`/g`) — but the visibility settings will let normal users visit them directly (`community.example.com/g/trust_level_0`).

It’s been like this for a long time… there’s an old comment in the code about why  
`# hide automatic groups from all non stuff to de-clutter page`

but maybe it’s unnecessary now? might be clearer to just have them follow their appearance settings (and let them remain hidden by default)
