   2.1.9 Motion & micro-interaction layer (additive only)

   Everything below this banner is an enhancement pass on the finished
   design: no colours, fonts, copy or layout change. Each numbered block
   (M1–M11) is self-contained — delete a block to remove that enhancement.

   Accessibility: all entrance/reveal styles only apply under .reveal-ready,
   which site.js never adds when the visitor prefers reduced motion, and the
   site-wide prefers-reduced-motion block above squashes every transition and
   animation as a second line of defence. Block M11 adds a third, explicit
   safety net for the new hidden states.
