/* =============================================================================
   True Masters — design system v3 (editorial light)

   Same structure as before: surfaces separated by hairlines rather than
   shadows, mono index marks, accordion rows, large light-weight display type.
   The canvas is now white/near-white, with the brand navy carrying the text
   and ultramarine as the single accent.
