   These three classes drive the homepage's deliberate light/dark visual rhythm.
   They pin FIXED colors (not the adaptive --color-* tokens) so the rhythm holds
   regardless of the visitor's OS light/dark preference — only the truly simple
   pages (FAQ, legal, apply.php) use the adaptive tokens directly. */
