Greta Gerwig's Little Women had a non-linear timeline indicated by the color grade and while a lot of us found it easy to follow, a lot of people were complaining about it. Sometimes the audience is at fault, it's not unreasonable to expect an audience to pay attention and think. Likewise, it's perfectly fine for the audience to say "nope, not for me, you're not being clear enough." But a line should not be drawn saying it must be done a certain way.
