> a solid rectangle but different color than the selected cell

Please keep in mind that different solid colors are also a potential conflict
with colors of other UI artifacts (grid lines, borders, background, font, dark
theme...), and it is also an accessibility issue (e.g. different types of color
blindness).

For some users, having the movement of "ants" helps differentiate the copied
area from other "static" non-solid styles of lines. For other users, the
animation can be an unnecessary distraction – I am talking about really
bothering user's ability to concentrate, not just some minor issue. Both cases
could be meaningful for each group of users, while the other possible OS
animations might be set to either ON or OFF according to other needs (e.g.
hardware resources). The opposing needs is the reason that the behavior must
rely on LO/Calc settings, taking the OS's setting as a base only.
