/* TriageTrail homepage — "clean clinical editorial" direction (founder-selected 2026-10-04).
 * Loaded last, after style.css/catalogue.css/corporate.css/experience.css/tokens.css, so it can
 * deliberately override those shared, multi-page files rather than editing them — this is a
 * homepage-only redesign; other pages keep their existing dark navy/mint treatment until a
 * matching pass is done there too (see ENGINEERING-LOG.md).
 *
 * Palette: warm cream, deep navy-charcoal ink, one restrained deep-teal accent. Serif display
 * type (Fraunces) for headlines, Inter for everything else. Minimal imagery — a single thin
 * line-art pulse trace stands in for photography/video, used once, quietly.

   "every heading/p/li/small/span/strong/a inside these dark-surface sections turns light"
   rule whose selector list includes ".product.featured" (a compound selector), which makes
   :is()'s computed specificity (0,0,2,1) for every item in that list, not (0,0,1,1) as it
   looks at a glance — quietly beating a plain ".signal-deck h2"-style override even though
   this file loads later. Found live (computed colour was the old near-white `#f7fffc`, not
   this rule's value) rather than guessed from reading the selector. Cheapest reliable fix is
   !important; chasing exact specificity per element is fragile against that shared rule.
