/* ============================================================
   Lotus CFO - S Corp Reasonable Salary Calculator
   Current Lotus brand (taken from lotuscfo.com's live CSS, not the
   pre-rebrand brief): deep green, burnt gold CTA, light gold on dark,
   cream surfaces, Playfair Display headlines, DM Sans body.

   Layout follows the v4 preview (dark hero, instrument-style cards),
   without its motion: no pinned scroll, no marquee, no grain, no
   count-up, no stamp. One 250ms fade when a result appears.
