You said:

But the subject says "Improving the appearance of moodle" and the OP specifically said, "One of the long-standing problems with moodle is the issue of its general appearance and general prettiness."

To elaborate on my disagreement with prettiness, not pretty does not mean ugly, there are so many tones inbetween. How about "pleasing", for a start? And then, are we talking about the looks of Moodle or the looks of the content we put in?

> I've had some massive fights along the lines of, "we need moving images with pictures of happy students everywhere in Moodle". Asking "why?" results in a kind of "burn the witch" attitude.

That is the corporate. And Moodle is corporate. You are well adviced to think twice before getting involved in massive fights.

Video solution to which problem?

Whatever that problem is, istn't that a topic for the future video forum which has delivery problems right now?

"Business case" is the politically correct term for "money talks". Remember Moodle Association https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=313217 ?
