   Brand stylesheet — shared across all pages.

   GOLD DISCIPLINE: gold is a signal, not decoration. Maximum two or three
   load-bearing gold moments per viewport. Approved uses only: masthead rule,
   section divider rules, one persuasion callout, CTA accents, contact details,
   footer company name. Bullets, icons, card borders and list markers are
   charcoal or warm hairline — never gold.

   CONTRAST: --gold-deep (#9C7F42) FAILS WCAG AA as body-size text on every
   ground (charcoal 4.16, stone 3.20, white 3.80). It is permitted for rules
   and large numerals ONLY. Small gold text uses --gold on charcoal (5.73)
   or --gold-ink on light grounds (stone 4.64, white 5.51).
