/* China Care Gateway — editorial redesign 2026-11-06
   Design language: "Deep Ink Editorial" — a quiet, magazine-grade system.
   Deep ink-slate masthead and hero, warm ivory paper, hairline rules,
   a serif display face with tracked uppercase eyebrows, muted gold used
   only as a whisper. No gradients, no shadows, no rounded cards. */
