Also making the UI more live by doing a small animation on hover (or focus change) for those of us who still use mice and keyboards.

This helps distinguish clickable/interactive elements from static ones, and helps with discoverability.

Highlighting a row/column heading in a table under the cursor, or a border around a clickable element, etc goes a mile towards making the UI snappy, responsive, and human.

For that, you shouldn't disguise interactive elements as static ones. To begin with ;)
