I think that, you know, it kind of depends on the situation. The setting of a Shakespeare play matters less than the interpretation. The setting, whatever, if that's to your taste or not, it's just a matter of taste; there's certainly a long tradition of staging Shakespeare in different ways and taking Shakespeare with a sense of humor is a good thing. But some interpretations are, I think, less worthy or less valid than others, and I think that it's valid to critique those, and to take that somewhat seriously; there's certainly nothing wrong with taking it seriously. I think that, ultimately, the interpretation and the content of the performance matters far more than the aesthetic choices about set design (which, I think, ultimately flow out of, or should flow out of, the larger philosophical-interpretative choices).

I mean, on a certain level, de gustibus non est disputandum, but on a certain level, it's valid to disagree about the content of an interpretation. And I think all of this holds, mutatis mutandis, for the other things you're talking about - there's a difference between nitpicking minor changes, and criticizing major changes in tone or intent that alter things integral to the work.
