` landed in the SECOND track while the first stayed
empty, and the whole index rendered inside 1fr of a 1140px box with a dead
210px gutter. That is the "one column" the operator saw.
Fixed with a modifier on the index only, so detail pages keep 210px 1fr. */

/* T3 typography rebase (session arti-17fcf3a5) — theme-scoped, cascades last.
The shared engine CSS hardcodes -apple-system on body and declares --ui/--read
without ever loading the faces, so Satoshi silently fell back. fonts.css +
typography.css are now linked in (fonts.css supplies the self-hosted @font-face rules); this rule makes the page consume the
token it already declares. Deliberately NOT changed in the engine renderer:
build_jurisdiction_page_v3.py also builds the ~105 JID pages, so a body-font
change there is a full-reflow decision, not a theme fix. */
