/* costreference.com — stylesheet.
   A basic cost-range directory: header, hero + search, category grid, range box, quick-stat
   grid, prose sections, FAQ, hub link lists, CTA and footer. No source/evidence components.

   Brand tokens are derived from the generated logo (hue 217, #0061FF): the accent is the
   38% lightness step so it stays >= 4.5:1 as link text on every surface. Fonts are the
   self-hosted Outfit/Inter woff2 files in fonts.css — no third-party font requests. */
