This looks like default platform behavior. Maybe we should get UX feedback if we want to change it.

Is this specifically related to drag-n-drop? I seem to get the same drag-cancel / return to original animation speed for 60 with drag and 58 without.

Yes, indeed, this seems to also affect the past builds behaviour (the ones without drag-n-drop).
