Which Excel functions can ignore hidden rows?
The SUBTOTAL and AGGREGATE functions ignore hidden rows. AGGREGATE can also exclude error cells and more.

For instance: It would remove row (4;12;16...)

Sort by column B, largest to smallest. Then use the Delete Duplicates tool.

Here's a macro based on the steps I suggested in post #3.
VBA Code:
Sub v()
Dim lc& : lc = Cells(1, Columns.Count).End(1).Column
Dim lr& : lr = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(3).Row
With Range([A3], Cells(lr, lc))
    .Sort Key1:=[A3], Order1:=xlAscending, _
        Key2:=[B3], order2:=xlDescending, Header:=xlYes
    .RemoveDuplicates Columns:=1, Header:=xlYes
End With
End Sub
