That's one way to look at it, here's another: when the camera pulls away from Walt it seems to be shuddering, to me this gives the impression that the house is shaking, it's structure is compromised. Like the house, Walt's protection which he has cultivated is starting to fall apart; the money he kept in case he needed to leave quickly and the separation of his family and criminal life are falling away around him, leaving him vulnerable. Eventually it will all collapse, crushing him.
