No, i don't see why any director would jeopardizing the absolute highlight of the book with too many hints.

You think the same approach would've worked on Fight Club, hmm?

I don't think so.
I don't think so either. Actually that is indeed a terrible way to ruin the fun for this sorta stories but I think Scorsese somehow or surprisingly still manages to maintain the excitement till the end and I personally appreciate his effort as you mentioned the atmosphere, cinematography, story & character development...all are great in Shutter Island.
