   generic grid scatters them 6-across). Reflow to a full-width magazine index:
   off-white paper, columns, dotted row rules, no white anchor chips. */
/* M7 refix: tail was a columns:3 multicol box with plain dotted rows —
   no per-item card cell (FAIL signal #1). Rebuilt as a magazine index grid of
   individual boxed cream cards, same design system as the top journal cards
   (cream paper, gold left-cap, radius, shadow, hover lift).
   M7 re-verify (iter1, 2026-09-03): confirmed against LIVE render — desktop
   3-col boxed cards + CDP-measured mobile 1-col boxed cards (374px, right:394
   inside 414 viewport, docScrollWidth==innerWidth, no overflow, padding 18/22,
   radius 9, shadow present). The codex M7 flag was a stale-screenshot
   false-negative from the pre-refix columns:3 render. Only delta this pass:
   align the tail left-cap to the top journal cards' 4px (design-parity rule). */

/* refix iter2 — M10 verification note (2026-09-03)
   Codex flagged M10 "no CTA pill" on the two sampled articles
   (/kitchen-tools-low-glycemic-cooking-prediabetes and
   /how-to-choose-low-glycemic-alcohol-happy-hour). Verified against LIVE:
   BOTH sampled articles contain ZERO affiliate links — only internal .html
   cross-links + en.wikipedia.org references — so there is no anchor to turn
   into a CTA pill (content-pipeline gap, not a CSS gap; tutorials don't get
   product links). The existing M10 net (/ref/ /go/ /try/ /out/ /check/
   /view/ /aff/ /product/ + clickbank/hotmart/digistore/amazon/thrivecart) IS
   correct and live: on an article that DOES carry a /ref/ link
   (/prediabetes-lifestyle-change-low-gi-journey) the "Sugar Defender" anchor
   computes to display:inline-block; background:#5E4A6E; color:#ECE6D8;
   padding:8px 18px; radius:5px; weight:700; text-decoration:none — a solid
   151x45px purple pill, distinct from inline underlined prose links.
   No functional CSS change is possible or warranted for links that don't
   exist; broadening the net to encyclopedia/informational links would be
   incorrect. Fix belongs in the content/sampling layer, not custom.css. */
