Bob, For me, movement means things sliding around, not more things appearing in different locations with the existing things remaining in place, so another stage for halves is not adding movement. I guess I don't require movement to be aware of new information, and I want as little new happening at once as possible, so movement tends to accentuate the message that something new is being added. Movement may be required if multiple new things are happening at once and some are working in relation to others, but I would look for movement to be used infrequently.
