I’m not going to comment on House of the Dragon (as I haven’t seen it) but the term “writing” is very broad, and refers to the screenplay as a whole.
Settings, scene transitions, character actions and dialogue are all part of the screenplay, and so plot holes are very much writing criticisms, even if other aspects of the writing such as the dialogue are sharp.
Then I may very well be mistaken. I’ve always thought of it as the words that get from the page to my ears. I guess there’s a lot more to a screenplay than that though. I stand corrected.
