   Geometry correction: a clean three-panel editorial triptych. Every
   slide shares ONE uniform basis per breakpoint — 100vw mobile / 50vw
   tablet / 33.3333vw desktop — so carousel.js slides by a full panel
   width (-index * slideWidth()) and every stepped position resolves to
   equal panels again. Panels are flush edge-to-edge, no gutters; each
   carries the category page's 1px neutral divider on its right edge
   (border-box, same language as listing.css .article-card-v2; inverted
   here for the black field). Image-only: no overlays, captions, labels.

   rows equalize via explicit grid rows (label / title / excerpt /
   byline) so the two cards of a pair stay aligned — no fixed pixel
   heights. The 1/1.08 box is LOCKED ON THE MEDIA WRAPPER (not the
   img): for a replaced element the intrinsic ratio otherwise wins,
   and unequal natural ratios would push the two cards' title rows
   apart. The img fills the locked box via width/height 100% +
   object-fit: cover. G2 keeps the row single-column below 640; the
   1px rule language (top of the section, between the two cards)
   appears only where the row actually splits into two columns.

   The base .story-card is display:grid, so when the .story-pair row
   stretches both cards to equal height, the taller card's surplus
   would be distributed INTO the grid tracks (align-content: normal
   behaves as stretch) — inflating the media row beyond the 1/1.08
   box and pushing that card's label/title rows down. align-content:
   start keeps the tracks at intrinsic size, so surplus stays at the
   bottom of the shorter card exactly like the V8 block layout. */

/* ============================================================
   Continuous Editorial Canvas (experimental composition)
   Geometry source: story-homepage-continuous-editorial-canvas-v11
   (V10/V11 refinements are the final authority, superseding the
   V9 base sheet within this composition).
   Token mapping: V11 ink/paper/muted/rule/soft → G2 --story-*
   tokens; display/meta type → --story-font (Graphik Web only;
   Spezia is reserved and not loaded). V11 font-size rhythm uses
   the theme's loaded weights (600 stands in for V11's 700).
   All rules are scoped to .story-home--continuous-canvas; nothing
   here may touch the other two compositions.
   Grid refinement (shared-grid pass): the six modules now share ONE
   12-column master grid — repeat(12, minmax(0, 1fr)) with
   --story-canvas-gutter — and module zones are placed with grid-column
   spans (hero 7/5, feature 8/4, portrait 5/7, diptych 4/4/4,
   panorama/caption bands 4/8). Tablet simplifies where a desktop split
   gets narrow (hero 6/6, feature & portrait stack, diptych 3/3 + copy
   band); mobile is a single column. No arbitrary % or fr split remains.

/* ============================================================
   HOMEPAGE V12 (experimental composition)
   Geometry authority: story-homepage-v12-final-bespoke-editorial-prototype.html.
   Composition: Hero (adaptive mood) → Centered Feature → Editorial
   Interlude (one uninterrupted photographic beat) → Strict 2×2 Story
   Intersection. FIXED SEQUENCE — no reordering. Scoped entirely to
   .story-home--homepage-v12; nothing here touches current/V2/
   continuous-canvas/gridline/V8. The Closing Rail is intentionally NOT
   closed (the shared modules/rail.php component is untouched).
   Type stays on STORY G2 faces (Graphik Web, loaded weights 400/500/600;
   the prototype's 650 meta weight maps to the heaviest loaded 600 and its
   500 display weight to --font-weight-normal). Meta k/u/ls and excerpt
   size/leading follow the V12 prototype per breakpoint.
   The hero backdrop is the adaptive mood palette (inline --v12-mood-bg /
   --v12-mood-fg emitted by the resolvers in inc/v12.php; assets/js/v12-hero.js
   derives the palette from the photograph when the mood is 'auto').
