/* ==========================================================================
   Level Offer — design system
   Aesthetic: refined restraint. A funded fintech product (Opendoor/Ramp/Mercury
   /Linear/Stripe), not a "we buy houses" wholesaler. The polish IS the trust.
   Light + dark via CSS vars. One confident accent (a calm considered green =
   "go / money / trust"). No external assets — system font stack tuned to read
   premium; distinctiveness comes from scale, spacing, depth and motion.
