/* =============================================================
 * v11 · Sticky header polish + column differentiation + UX
 * -------------------------------------------------------------
 * Appended on top of v10. Three fixes the site needed:
 *   (A) Header was clipping due to `height: var(--header-height)`
 *       set on a sticky element; switched to min-height so the
 *       mobile menu doesn't get hidden behind the cap, and the
 *       sticky bar always reflects real content height.
 *   (B) Sticky header was transparent at scroll=0, making it
 *       blend into the page. Now has subtle glass from the start
 *       and a crisper hit on scroll.
 *   (C) Use-case, feature, step, plan and blog-post cards all
 *       used the SAME surface treatment. Each grid now has a
 *       per-position accent stripe + tinted tag/icon/number so
 *       readers can scan categories at a glance.
 * ============================================================= */

/* =============================================================
 * v11.1 · Scroll fix — body was a competing scroll container
 * -------------------------------------------------------------
 * Earlier `body { overflow-y: auto !important }` rules (v9 + v10
 * blog patches, lines ~3698 and ~4106) made body its own scroll
 * container. Combined with html scrolling on desktop, the mouse
 * wheel hit body first, body had nothing to scroll, and the tick
 * was absorbed — symptom: wheel scrolls a tiny bit then stops.
 *
 * Fix: keep horizontal containment but switch body to
 * `overflow-x: clip`. `clip` does the same visual clipping as
 * `hidden` but does NOT establish a scroll container and does
 * NOT coerce `overflow-y: visible` to `auto` — so body stops
 * eating wheel events and they reach html normally.
 * ============================================================= */

/* =============================================================
 * v11.2 · Scroll wobble fix (header is-scrolled threshold)
 * -------------------------------------------------------------
 * When scrollY crosses 18 (script.js:835 toggles .is-scrolled
 * on the header), three things were happening at once and the
 * user perceived it as "wobble":
 *
 *   (1) padding-top jumped 14px → 10px instantly. The v11 patch
 *       had replaced the header's `transition` shorthand and
 *       accidentally dropped `padding` from the list, so the
 *       4px shift was no longer smoothed. The header's inner
 *       content (logo, nav, buttons) snapped up/down each time
 *       the threshold was crossed.
 *
 *   (2) backdrop-filter animated blur(14px) → blur(20px) over
 *       200ms. Animating backdrop-filter is GPU-heavy; while
 *       that 200ms transition was running AND the user was
 *       scrolling, the browser had to re-render the blur on
 *       every frame, causing visible judder.
 *
 *   (3) border-bottom + box-shadow popped in instantly (not in
 *       the transition list), adding a hard "snap" on top of
 *       the blur reanimation and the padding shift.
 *
 * Fix: hold blur constant, hold padding constant, and smoothly
 * fade ONLY the cheap properties (background, border, shadow).
 * Net effect of crossing the 18px threshold: a 220ms background
 * tint fade. No reflow, no GPU spike.
 * ============================================================= */
