animation causes sudden restarts in animation when interrupted. Using transition would be better, I would think.

After working with transition for a while, I've come to realize that animation really is better overall despite its hiccups.

Let's say you had an "adding" animation, but no "removing" animation, there's no way to know anything beyond transition simply having a value. The event might not even trigger at all.

Also, animation can override transitions without hindering any interactive logic (like transitioned :hovers).

Right, so there's no obvious way to detect when a transition has been applied. If there was a transition start event, I could start thinking about how that could work, but for now animations only.
