/*!
 * QuadraEdge — Unified Master Stylesheet (qe.css)
 *
 * Single source of truth for the entire platform. Every PHP view loads
 * only this file; no page ships its own <style> block any more.
 *
 * ARCHITECTURE (layers, in cascade order):
 *   01  TOKENS            — global design system at :root (colors, type,
 *                           spacing, radii, shadows, motion, brand aliases)
 *   02  DESIGN SYSTEM v3  — reset, base, components, layouts
 *   03  A11Y / UX OVERLAY — focus rings, status pills, quiz review
 *   04  NAV + FRONT PAGE  — mobile-first navigation + home sections
 *   05  ADMIN CONSOLE     — /admin/* layout, tables, forms, KPIs
 *   06  AUTH              — login / register / team-pass split screens
 *   07  COURSE PLAYER     — learn.php lesson layout & resources
 *   08  CERTIFICATE       — certificate.php printable sheet
 *   09  TRAINING CATALOGUE— training_catalogue.php sections
 *   09b TRAINING CATEGORIES— category filters, section headers, accents
 *   10  FREE COURSES      — free-courses.php sections
 *   11  AI COURSE FACTORY — ai_course_factory/admin/* (scoped .acf-page)
 *   13  MEDIA & BLOCKS    — shared embeds, galleries, knowledge checks,
 *                           media.php's "Open separately" viewer
 *   14  AUTHORING         — media library grid + microlearning builder
 *   15  MICROLEARNING     — mobile-first single-step player
 *   16  AUTHORING FORMS   — field sizing for admin/instructor forms,
 *                           admin/help.php
 *   17  IMPORTED LESSONS  — qel-* lessons converted for import
 *                           (scripts/convert_qel_lessons.py)
 *   18  ABOUT PAGE        — about.php hero, facts, ACS LLC, practice
 *
 * Layers 05–11 were migrated from per-page inline <style> blocks and
 * re-expressed with the layer-01 tokens so admin & satellite modules
 * share one visual identity with the main site.
 *
 * NOTE ON INTENTIONAL OVERRIDES: a few selectors (e.g. .qe-nav) appear
 * twice — the later "production fix" blocks are authoritative and are
 * documented inline where they occur. Do not merge them blindly.
