/* --------------------------------------------------- 17. MOTION & REVEAL
   FAIL-VISIBLE BY DESIGN.
   `.rv` and `.rv-img` carry no hidden state of their own — everything on the
   page, images included, renders fully visible with no JavaScript at all.
   The hidden starting state exists only under `html.js-reveal`, a class that
   the inline head script adds solely when the browser supports
   IntersectionObserver and the visitor has not asked for reduced motion.
   Consequence: if scripting fails, is blocked, or the observer misfires, the
   content still shows. It can never be stranded invisible. */

/* Images are never animated in.
   The old `.rv-img { clip-path: inset(0 0 100% 0) }` wipe is deliberately
   gone, and no `<figure>` or media wrapper carries `.rv` any more. A reveal
   that starts from "invisible" hides a photograph COMPLETELY until a script
   un-hides it, so any hiccup — a missed observer callback, a stalled
   transition, a browser quirk — leaves the reader looking at an empty frame
   where a portrait should be. A photograph is content, not decoration, and
   it is not worth risking for an animation.

   Belt three: any element that still fades and happens to CONTAIN an image
   (a journey chapter, the insights sidebar) opts itself out here, so a photo
   can never be dimmed by an ancestor either. Browsers too old for `:has()`
   fall back to the JS sweep, which reveals anything that reaches the fold. */
