summary for non-techies**
The upcoming SharePoint update will introduce animations for specific web parts like Editorial cards, Quick Links, and People sections, which will be enabled by default for new cards but can be turned off if preferred, and existing cards can have animations added if desired.
Direct effects for Operations**
User Experience Disruption
The introduction of card animations may distract users or lead to confusion, especially if they are not accustomed to animated elements in SharePoint. This could impact their ability to focus on content and navigate effectively.
