ANY noticeable percieved "flaw" in any creative media will eventually become an aesthetic choice.

For an example, watch Shogun. Director apparently thought that most of the screen being out of focus was a positive. Quite distracting.

Or Snyder's terrible zombie movie Army of the Dead where he uses lenses with very shallow depth of field that makes almost everything look out of focus. It is very annoying.
