I’d speculate it was commercial necessity that was the mother of Hitchcockian invention. 
Greetings was such a success that Warner Bros. brought De Palma out to Hollywood to make their “tune in-drop out” satire Get to Know Your Rabbit, starring Tom Smothers (one of the real zeitgeist comedy stars of the era). But after finishing Rabbit, (which is really funny), the studio put it on the shelf for three years. After the bad studio experience of Rabbit, De Palma realized, by 1970, the sixties hippie aesthetic was dead on arrival. But De Palma’s entire identity was tied to that aesthetic. What was required was both a reinvention of self and a commercial genre of cinema he could survive and hopefully thrive in.
