/* ============ Shared chrome for inner pages ============
   Homepage (index.html) keeps its own inline stylesheet (it has a
   dedicated one-scroll-per-section paging system tightly coupled to its
   fixed set of section ids and a transparent-over-hero header). Inner
   pages scroll normally, so they share this stylesheet instead: same
   tokens/type/buttons/rail/footer, a header that is solid navy from the
   start (no hero photo behind it to be transparent over), and a set of
   reusable content patterns (banner, split layout, photo cards, stat
   band, icon grid, profile cards) used across About/Leadership/Services/
   Sectors/Contact. */
