When the end state changes over time, or there is no defined duration.

Stated dabbling with game dev very recently so I'm curious about this!

Couldn't we get the delta, or for some animations use modulo arithmetic? Maybe mix in some gradient noise into the animation to make it seem organic to break the looping.

It would be illuminating if you showed an example of what you mean by using modulo arithmetic, or getting the delta; otherwise we can't comment on your idea.
