Actual Behavior

The underline animation does not correctly animate in the expected direction when in RTL.

Expected Behavior

I'd expect the animation to correctly display as it does in LTR, but flipped.

cc @SkyeSeitz @ashetland - I know we've talked about changing this animation altogether and favoring something less... busy - maybe an additional px height on hover, just color change, etc., so could be a good opportunity to look at that.

cc @ashetland @SkyeSeitz WDYT/ any thoughts on changes to the link animation?

[SkyeSeitz]

I could definitely see a few options where the animation is removed. I think I lean towards just an instant color change from 40% opacity to 100%, as seen in the prototype below.

I like that instant change. Mocked up a bump from 1px to 2px for the indicator @macandcheese mentioned just for comparison. I think I go for the simple version or just instant timing.
