I'm not denying that it is probably the pinnacle, grand finale, etc. of celestial events or that it is an "experience".
SOME of the things.. you mentioned relating to a Solar eclipse I would argue could are observed during Sunrise and Sunset though.

Sunrise and Sunset are their own experiences as well but just not as rare as a Solar Eclipse.

"Sunrise and sunset make light a very prominent feature that dictates the behavioral patterns of animals. Many diurnal animals, those that are active during the day like humans, increase their activity following sunrise and subsequently decrease their activity following sunset."

How long does a sunrise last?

"The Sun covers 360 degrees per day, 0.5° means it takes 1/720 from 24 hours, 0.033h or exactly 2 minutes. So, at sunrise, from the moment you first see the tip of the Sun until it appears completely full, it takes 2 minutes. The same for Sunset."
