I dunno if it's a pro or con that the double pendulum & rain examples are all over the internet - a follow up might be to move these to the blog?

These also produce large output (I think unchained is actually the worst in that regard).

I would rather see the length of the animations cut down or skipped on CI (which might require work against sphinx-gallery) so save time rather than cutting them all together. I think there is a lot of value in a pretty complete application that, even though it does not show anything unique, shows how to put them together. That bit of "oooh, you can assemble the pieces like that...." spark should not be discounted.

Does this need discussion @dstansby, or do you have enough to work on? I'm putting back to draft given the comments above, but feel free to put back int he active queue. Thanks!

Thanks - I think there's enough to go on when I come back round to looking at this 👍

Since it seems like this requires higher level discussion beyond a quick PR, I'm going to close.
