Then we should give users a choice some how? You'd think this could be a solved issue ~20 years in.

If the animation were done in pure CSS, UA stylesheets could suppress it handily.
Suggestion to improve the UX for some users by having them write CSS stylesheets? Count me it ;).

Nothing personal, but this sounded a bit surreal to me.

"UA stylesheets" is sort of an intermediary format these days; you don't write them yourself, you use a browser or browser extension or a piece of native accessibility software that generates them for you in response to your described needs.
FWIW iOS has a reduce animation accessibility option. No idea if it's somehow enforced on apps or Google voluntarily respect it in their apps though.
