I don't find the animation pretty, but it never bothered me in the slightest and I doubt that many other people are really bothered by it.
The point is that Bioware made very clear that it would be a Remaster, not a Remake.
Changing an animation is something that would require additional testing. It is not something you just do and hope that it works in every part of the game, other things are influenced by it.
So Remaster = upgrading the quality of the the imaging, not changing the content.

The animation quality was a major cause of drama on the BioWare forums back when the ME3 demo released. There were meme videos that rivaled the Andromeda backlash (the first video in the OP being one of them). This thread is giving me Vietnam flashbacks to that time.
People did kind of forget about all that very quickly when the full game came out and they got to play the subsequent missions. Then it became clear that the running animation was made with full armor in mind, and it doesn't look as silly after that first mission (even if the animations overall are kinda not great).
@Fred_vdp Uh, no, it doesn't look fine everywhere after the first mission. It looks awful throughout the entire game, right up to the end.
It sounds like a fan-person came-up with a narrative to defend BioWare concerning the animation, but that narrative you've mentioned isn't true.
The run animation in ME3, with armour on, is as ridiculous-looking as this power armour / body glitch that was in Fallout '76.

I'm not defending them at all. I think the animations in the game are super janky. I just think the running animation is less distracting after the opening mission.

For me it sounds like you're focusing a bit too much on a minor and also subjective problem.
