I don't see that enough to get exorcised over it. Unless it's so constant that I get bored. Usually, I'll just have fun with quirks.
"Beyond words." There are people who have gone beyond words. We call them mimes. (I'm currently working on a novel called "Mime Time". 200 pages of blank prose. Saves on ink. Ebook formatting is a breeze.)
"No words were needed." I can't fault someone for being right. I like words, but they are something of a luxury. (The reader (me (nested parentheticals)) of my novel can bask in the luxury of 4 words "Mime Time by Fluribus". I never publish anything due to a general misanthropy and a specific fear of Stockholm.)
I'm actually hoping that I'll run into some of those phrases in the next book I read. Maybe my lack of exposure is due to my reading habits. I never read romance. I rarely read horror (unless one counts eldritch classics by the ancients of the early 20th). The only current poet that I ever read is myself (and usually only when I'm writing it).
