/* ==========================================================================
   Safety First Collective — Design System
   Cinematic Production Safety Command Center

   Visual language notes:
   - Dark surfaces (hero, feature sections, CTA band, footer) share one baked-in
     cinematic treatment: layered navy gradient + film grain + a faint
     soundstage-grid line texture. No per-page decoration required.
   - Amber is a signature safety-indicator color used only as a tiny
     micro-accent (a status dot, a hairline, a flagged doc-line). It is not
     an interactive or structural color.
   - Steel blue / mist blue carry all hover, active, and numbering treatments.
   - The light palette is deliberately cool — a blue-tinted off-white and
     mist gray, never cream/beige — so the site reads as navy command-center,
     not warm editorial or lifestyle.

   "Also supported" secondary use-case panel

   For an audience grid with an odd count (e.g. 6 primary segments + 1
   secondary), this is deliberately NOT a 7th grid cell — a lone trailing
   card reads as accidental. It's also deliberately not a plain label/
   title/copy flex row, which reads as a stray table row rather than a
   considered panel — the fixed-width kicker column plus a mist-blue left
   accent (echoing the .process-row rule-and-numeral language elsewhere on
   this page) is what makes it read as an intentional aside, not a data row.
