Well that solves SMIL and I was today years old when I learned about SVG pauseAnimations!

I was thinking about it and would the following not work for CSS applied animations in 99% of circumstances (I know a more specific selector with !important would obviously slip through but other than that I think it would work?)?

svg *{
    transition-property: none !important;
    transition-duration: 0s !important;
    animation: none !important;
    animation-duration: 0s !important;
    animation-iteration-count: 0 !important;
}
