It didn't seem unreasonably deep at all. It was long, sure, but it seemed to only scratch the surface of the topics it was discussing. That was sort of my point in bringing up the css function - it is itself incredibly bare-bones, but just describing it's usage would have covered more ground imo.

"Unreasonably deep" is a relative term. Certainly deeper than I care to go. But sure, it could be unreasonably deeper.

Every time I have used animation my approach has been to treat it as frosting to be used sparingly. As such I would be much more attracted to simple/supported modes (that someone else will be interested in keeping functional) than I would be to obsessing over physics realism. But I am also a UI caveman with no taste, so there's that.
