This is an Out of Sight puzzle.
Puzzle 61
I’m guessing one reason nikoli makes Hitori the way they do is to discourage the use of metalogic (using the fact there is a unique solution), which can still be pretty effective but far more cumbersome than in a puzzle type like this. I guess I can’t stop you from using it, but you’re only depriving yourself of the puzzle’s creativity by doing so.
Maybe I should offer prizes for finding errors in my puzzles or something. That would be quite a negative incentive to use metalogic.
