/* =============================================================
   About Us Redesign — phase 9 (page-about-us.php only)
   Loaded conditionally on is_page('about-us') from functions.php.
   Reuses tokens defined site-wide in auth-redesign.css (--auth-*).
   Salient's parent stylesheet loads after this file via wp_head(),
   so heading rules need !important to win the cascade.

   Visual language mirrors the landing page (landing-redesign.css):
   navy/teal palette, Georgia serif headings, Poppins body, rounded
   cards. The section rhythm is intentionally different — About is
   narrative (hero → story → mission → differentiators → close)
   while landing is conversion-driven (hero → split → privacy CTA).
