/* =====================================================================
   THE STRATEGIST — Ink & Ballot design system, Vol. II ("The Desk")
   Shared stylesheet for all six pages. Vol. I drew the site as flat
   printed matter. Vol. II keeps every token, rule and layout but gives
   the matter PHYSICAL DEPTH: sheets lift off the desk, dark plates
   recess like vaults, buttons extrude and press, the hero seals float
   in a real 3D scene. One law governs it all: PAPER AND PLATES CAST
   SHADOWS — INK NEVER DOES. Stamps and rules stay flat; objects lift.
   Everything is CSS + a few lines of vanilla JS. No libraries.
   ===================================================================== */

/* ---------------------------------------------------------------------
   TOKENS
   Paper derivation: the ground is not reflex warm-cream. It is derived
   from Election-Commission ballot stock / archival wood-free bond:
   hue 47deg (unbleached pulp), saturation held to ~39% at 95% lightness
   so it reads as printed matter — #F8F6EF = hsl(47,39%,95%).
   --paper-lift is the same hue nudged +1.5L (the form/plate face);
   --paper-dim the same hue -3L (the counter-band behind the slate).
   Ink #1A1922 is election-ink violet-black, never pure #000.
   Indigo #2E3A8C is office-stamp ink. Saffron #E0862B is the seal
   accent and appears on DARK grounds only (register lock).
   --tri-green exists solely for the tricolour counter-thesis underline.
