That's exactly it.
For the "well how would YOU do it" crowd, you have to write your screenplay differently. Stop using scenes where there's only two important characters constantly, and if you have to do it, stop using shot/reverse-shot closeups all the time. Stop having your characters always interrupting what they're doing to have a static, two people standing kind of talk. Stop using inserts to the stuff people are picking up/talking about all the time ; the people who watch movies don't need this to understand (at least I think they don't). Start using shots where there's multiple informations on the screen and don't use them only when there's an obvious, tacky visual joke to do with it.
There's plenty more to say, I guess, starting with his now thoroughly analyzed action sequences that don't follow any kind of geometrical plane, stop using quick-cutting to hide your lack of action-staging techniques (or make films that don't need action sequences, like Memento, which was rather great).
