/* zotexmedia.com design system
   One stylesheet for every page. Page files may carry a few page-specific rules;
   everything shared (tokens, type, header, footer, hero, sections, buttons, FAQ,
   article, cards) lives here so the SEO generators inherit it instead of copying it.
   Lint: seo/ui_lint.py keeps inline CSS small and brace-balanced on generated pages. */
