No no no no, you misunderstood. If you are fighting the DM your playstyle is distruptive, no matter what, unless your discomfort is shared along the table with other players. The DM is totally free to change the way a spell works, his job is to create a coherent world which give immersion and amusement to the players, rule zero nukes to ground everything else. If your table and the DM are fine with your playstyle there's nothing to prevent you to play that way
