That's a fair point but the effect is wildly different for the reader or audience in the modern world. Where Gibson's invented language invokes a mood with a very different language you can still follow, Shakespeare's language became common usage to the point of sounding cliched. He's even named his loverboy character "Romeo!" - a real quote from highschool. Kind of different to reading how someone interfaced, jacked, punched deck, couldn't proj etc. It's been decades so my examples are probably in need of some work but I guess they stayed with me that long.
