/* =========================================================================
   MEDUZA AGENCY — shared stylesheet  (v3 "Couture")
   Fixes from the harsh audit:
     - killed the tiling scale "wallpaper" texture
     - killed emoji, killed the squiggle serpent, killed ✦ overuse
     - letter-spacing cut from 0.42em to restrained values, few tracked elements
     - body text weight 300 -> 400, higher contrast (readable = premium)
     - % glyph set in the sans face, no more shrunken Bodoni degree symbol
     - gold restrained; light section added for scroll rhythm
     - ladder rows equal width (staggered widths read as a bug)
   Palette unchanged: gold + near-black + warm cream.
