~/.local/share/kwin/scripts/ is for scripts. effects have to be installed in
~/.local/share/kwin/effects/

Thank you for this quick response.
Out of curiosity, I’m interested in what part of the animations HIG was
decisive in changing this effect?

The configure button of the effect is currently missing, there is even a bug
report about it: 449881 – but a fix seems to be on the way.

I’ve followed your instructions to download and install the 5.23 version with
an altered ID. kpacketool5 rightly installed it into
~/.local/share/kwin/scripts/, but it is not visible (after a relogin) in system
settings → Kwin scripts. Do I need to change more?

We made the scale effect adhere to the HIG, so the looks of the effect have
changed a bit. Note that the scale is configurable. If you don't like the new
look, you can raise scale values to make the effect more subtle.

If you're still unsatisfied with that, you could take the source code of the
scale effect from 5.23
https://github.com/KDE/kwin/blob/Plasma/5.23/src/effects/scale/package/contents/code/main.js
and overwrite /usr/share/kwin/effects/kwin4_effect_scale/contents/code/main.js
or wherever it's installed.

You could also copy src/effects/scale
(https://github.com/KDE/kwin/tree/Plasma/5.23/src/effects/scale) and replace
kwin4_effect_scale in metadata.desktop with a new id and install it using
kpackagetool5, e.g. `kpackagetool5 --type KWin/Script --install
/path/to/copied-effect`
