Or you could be a bit more creative and use the f2.8 end - front to back in focus is a bit boring after a while and not how we see things with our own eyes
Try using a shallower DoF to place emphasis on parts of the landscape that defines it for you
But - to be 'safe' - shoot everything at f11 first then get more creative once you've got the safe shots in the bag

I would sort of like to disagree with you here. Your eyes may "see" the scene in a shallow depth of field, and relatively narrow field of view, each. However the scene is perceived by the brain that processes the input and creates a wide depth of field ultra wide angle landscape. So it is not so straightforward. Photography is art anyway, so the decisions one way or another are typically based on the creative merit rather than anatomy of the eye or the neural network.
Secondly it is technically very hard to create an strong enough depth of field effect at longer focal distances with 24-70mm lens. I find myself wanting it all in focus or a lot of defocus with just the details standing out. Nothing in between at all.
No problem with anyone ever disagreeing
I've found that f11-f16 and hyperfocal focusing is rarely 'right' IF everything front to back needs to be sharp, I find it better to focus stack if that's really the aim, in which case I shoot at my lens' "sweet-spot" and vary focus point accordingly
That said, my last (errr LOTS of) landscape shots have all be taken at f2.8 down to f2 and usually on my 85mm. I've done the everything in focus thing for long enough, and I'm finding this added creativity enlightening
