Restrictive maybe in a technical sense... But how about creative sense?
I assume all these limitations exist only to cut costs? If the animation process requires far less resource, then far more ideas have a shot at being made into an animation, including risky and unconvenctional ideas that noone would be willing to spend a lot of money on to see if it becomes popular. So there are two sides to the coin.
A very nice analysis on your part though. I have never even realised any of these things. Except I have thought about how ridiculously few lines manga style can use, and wether it was to conserve the time spent drawing.
