Great article. Hadn't heard the specific term "medium specificity" but it's one I definitely have believed in for a while (currently embroiled in a debate over what makes good writing in a novel and like your comments on directorial flourishes, I don't think beautifully complex sentences is enough).

the trick with medium specificity is that everything is subjective, of course, which means people will reasonably disagree on what the unique attributes of a medium even are, which is awesome!
