/*
 * Article rhythm: the layer on top of articles.css that keeps a long article from reading as one
 * continuous block of text. It holds only layout and decoration, no colors of its own (all from tokens.css).
 * It is not generated, so it survives a new run of tools/skin_mcs.py.
 * Choices approved by the site owner on 20 Oct 2026 (style tester).
 *
 * 1. Opening block: more air between the title and the lead.
 * 2. Sections: plain h2, a soft sage tint behind every section, no dividers.
 * 3. Subheads (h3): a small dot on the left.
 * 4. Lists: numbered circles for ol, cards for ul.
 * 5. Pictures: a card with a soft shadow, never taller than 440px. Tall pictures stay centered.
 * 6. Breaks in long text: .mcs-pull, .mcs-keypoint, .mcs-stat, .mcs-flow.
 * 7. (1.7.10) Numbered citations, the flow as a one-column svg, small drawings, the book box and the contact note.
