   Two recurring issues fixed globally so they don't need page-by-page patches:
   (1) Card-header visibility — .card on a navy section keeps its light surface,
       so headers/eyebrows/links must stay dark-on-light, not inherit #fff.
   (2) Meaningful supporting text on navy (muted, validation, disclaimers, notes)
       must use a compliant light token, never low-contrast slate. */
