IMHO you did not understand the context of this question.  I reject the
assertion that context menus are only has hidden as submenus because
they cannot be made visible outside their temporary pop-up state.

Regardless, moving to something visible is known to be faster than moving
to something invisible.  App menus that you use a lot can be made visible
for longer than a mouse click.
