I haven't spontaneously checked any of EL James' recently written work to see how that interestingly phrased theory is hypothetically working out. She's rich, or should I say ridiculously silly rich. So I speculatively guess it decidedly doesn't matter.
Whew! That's enough adverbs for like... a novel!

There's one more point I'd like to make, and this is advice that was given to me so long ago I can't remember where it's from.
If you're working with an editor, adverbs are extremely easy to fix. Writing that suffers from being too flat is not. So while you're learning to write well, it's better to try too hard, to push your language in too many places, or in this case to use the adverbs more freely, and to rely on a process that scales back later. After all, the only way to learn how to use an adverb well... is to actually use them.
