Sorry if I was confusing, I was trying to be very clear indeed by disinguishing gifs in general from animated gifs, which are a very specific subclass. Seems I got a bit too geeky.

I found the original feedback request confusing as it didn't state animated gif, but just gif. An a gif is just a picture. It seemed not different from saying: Should we use jpg or png image files? Also the only link was to a page that didn't have an animated gif, but a promo pic.

I wasn't sure that people would know which two options you were asking them to choose between, so I asked for clarification.

I shall keep my technical digression into why just saying "gif" instead of "animated gif" is  confusing (or lets say insufficiently precise) to myself in future.
