You missed the point that this is an example. But since this is where you want to dwell:
Of course you can do work arounds, but one animation per slide for engineering, or economics would result in a slide show with 800 slides, which is not practical at all.
Going back a previous animation isn't a new request (issue 48179 originally opened in 2005), this team is either ignoring the request, has no idea how to fix the problem with the bloated openoffice code, or doesn't think its important.
Using a product doesn't make you a fanboy. I run Linux as an operating system because I think it works better, not because I have some emotional issues with Microsoft. As long as openoffice still sucks, I am stuck with what actually works MS Office. When I can get away with it, I prefer latex beamer class but its just not practical for extensive animations.
