  Version: 2.1.0
  Last updated: 2026-04-03
  Changes:
    v1.0.0 — Initial IT site build
    v2.0.0 — Full rewrite for VA site. Removed dead IT-site code
             and duplicate/overriding rules. Modernized design

             card flag pattern, unified card shadow hierarchy,
             expanded CSS variables, consolidated font scale,
             updated button radius, added text-wrap, standardized
             transitions, fixed focus contrast. Added new component
             classes for Phase 3 HTML restructure (trust-icon-band,
             feature-band, testimonials, mid-page CTA, pricing
             callout, role icons/badge, case result headline).
    v2.1.0 — Design polish: hero secondary button ghost override;
             featured pricing card stronger treatment + badge;
             role icons and feature band icons changed to blue;
             checklist checkmarks changed to blue; section heading
             subtext opacity softened; FAQ item margin increased;
             about-photo aspect-ratio added; nav-toggle focus state;
             case study P/S/R label color coding; contact trust
             paragraph style; va-pricing-discovery note style;
             review strip tablet fix; pricing grid centering at
             1024px; disabled button state; removed unused
             testimonials CSS; removed va-check-list CSS (replaced
             by va-checklist in HTML); consolidated list styles.
