They're not doing that either. And unfortunately bad designs are rarely fatal, so can linger for decades. And animation time waste has little to do with power use, everyone suffers

To be honest I think it's revealing of a bigger problem: yes men. People are too afraid of telling the emperor about his (lack of) new clothes. I see this a lot. Not just with CEOs but even engineers being afraid of pushing back on their managers. It's your job you voice your opinions, but it is also true that the manager is the ultimate decision maker. There's a healthy balance here and if employees are afraid to tell the emperor about his new clothes then many just end up resenting and talking behind their backs. You can't have a healthy team if people aren't allowed or even willing to voice their concerns.
Is it fear or just a checked out mentality? I can easily see devs at corps just doing whatever is asked by management to the minimum standard and calling it a day.
Particularly if there is a corporate push for efficiency (tautologically true) or the dev is an offshore worker who stands to gain nothing from being prideful in their work.
