/* ff-visual.css: VISUAL SYSTEM for Fine Finishes Custom Painting on the deterministic Bluebird skeleton.
   Loads AFTER assets/bb-skeleton.css and overrides paint only. The skeleton keeps the layout, the section order,
   the row alternation (.bb-row / .bb-row-rev) and the 1024 / 860 / 600 collapses. Nothing here changes markup.
   System ported from the measured a client build (see a client repo section 1
   for the numbers read out of ~/hero-rebuild/src/index.html): radius 14px containers / 100px pills / 10px small
   chrome; a two-rung neutral shadow ladder plus one lift rung; brand gradients; accent-tinted shadow ONLY under
   accent objects; three weights 800 / 700 / 600; band colour changes instead of rules; 3 restrained keyframes.
   Colours are this client's own tokens (docs/ff-palette.json): --navy from the logo ink, --orange = the site red #B82429
   sampled from the client's own offer graphic, --accent-on-dark for blue text and icons on navy.
   Every rule the skeleton sets per breakpoint or per variant is RESTATED at the end of this sheet. */
