 * The flowing gradient is a deliberate echo of the Founder's Cup kinetic
 * quality, here in blue and teal instead of orange and gold. Used on:
 *   - .accent spans inside headlines
 *   - .logo-foundry (the FOUNDRY wordmark inside the navigation logo)
 *   - .g-text utility (anything that wants the shimmer)
 *   - .g-bg utility (block-fill version, used on the pathway hero)
 *
 * Edge-rendering note: `padding-inline-end` adds ~0.08em of breathing room
 * so the gradient bounding box doesn't clip the trailing glyph on Safari
 * (the "P." looking like "P▮" bug from the first cut of the site).

/* ── HERO ──
 *
 * Full-viewport editorial hero. The photo runs in COLOUR behind the
 * content, with a soft haze (blur + light cream wash) over the top
 * to dial the on-image text out of focus without killing the scene.
 * The text anchors top-left and runs down the left third, so the
 * eye lands hard on the headline rather than floating in the middle.
 *
 *   Filter strategy: 3px Gaussian blur (the haze itself) + a tiny
 *   saturation drop. No grayscale, no duotone, no vignette. The image
 *   stays a photograph; the blur is what defeats the AI-generated
 *   on-image text (whiteboard handwriting, posters) without flattening
 *   the scene.
 *
 *   Readability strategy: a strong dark wash from the LEFT edge,
 *   fading to transparent before the centre. That lets the cream
 *   text sit on a near-black left without ever darkening the right
 *   half of the image.
