You can look at a 100 year old picture and tell if it was cooked to over 165f?

Is overcooking not visible?

Burning the outside is visible. Over cooking meat definitely is not visible, unless you way, way, over cook it. A pork loin cooked to 145f can look almost exactly like one cooked to 170f from the outside.
