   EDITORIAL OVERHAUL — 2026-05-26
   Goal: stop looking like a generated SaaS landing page.
   Style: small-town newspaper + modern typography. Restrained color,
   serif headlines, intentional whitespace, proper SVG icons.
   Loads AFTER directory.css AND redesign-2026-05-25.css to override.

/* ===================================================================
   POLISH FIXES (added 2026-05-26 PM):
   1) Restore desktop .wrap max-width (overflow-lock clobbered it)
   2) Wider header gutters so the brand isn't flush against the edge
   3) Rebuild footer on warm-green ink with readable cream/gold text
   4) Brighten guide-pitch bullet text (was barely visible on green)
   5) Guide-tab auto-hides when footer is in view (was overlapping)
