   FalconMind — site stylesheet (single source of truth)

   Loaded by index.html, news.html and every article page.
   Page-specific rules live in that page's own <style> block,
   which comes after this file in the cascade.

   DESIGN: light editorial. Warm bone field, near-black ink,
   bronze as the brand primary. Layout is an asymmetric spread —
   a sticky marginalia rail beside an offset content column.
   Type is Archivo throughout, with hierarchy carried by its
   width (62-125) and weight (100-900) axes rather than by a
   second family. JetBrains Mono holds every label and figure.
