Amusingly, it's the only "better default" that isn't described in the README, and against which there's a open issue: https://github.com/technomancy/better-defaults/issues/27 .
Have you read the comments? People complain about macOS behavior, and the first proposed "fix" was to make it work close to how it works on GNU/Linux (except flashing the mode-line, probably because that is easier to implement).
Hence the reply: "that's strange; the behavior you describe is how it already works for me".
A moving reddish shape should bring enough attention, but of course different users have different levels of sensitivity (as the discussion in bug#47574 has shown). Only a practical experiment can tell.Moving??? Why do you think this would be better than simply blinking the echo area?
"Blinking" is also movement. I don't have a specific animation in mind.
