Re: Animation holding up gameplay? Not necessarily!
Last bit first: huzzah -- used to express approval or delight
I now understand that we are talking about two different wastes of time, yours is where we waste our personal time while playing the game and mine was where we lost available turn time waiting for the animations to resolve. Admittedly, I don't recall too many people having your complaint, but it might be fun to watch all the animations catch up after playing all your plants/zombies quickly. Another possibility would be to remove animations entirely. Personally, I don't voice your complaint and like it as-is.
