Not necessarily. If you want to "cheat" the limitations, the thing to do is not to compress your thoughts down in a way that cannot be read for ages, but rather write one giant run-on sentence that lasts for pages and pages. That is to say, a good munchkin would realize that there is no word limit, just a sentence limit, and would exploit that loophole ruthlessly.

Edit: I now see that Mestroyer had this exact same idea here.
