/* MoneyToplist — Main Stylesheet
   Trimmed from the MarbleHost original: kept tokens, reset, animations,
   eyebrow, buttons, hero, shared sections, legal-page styles and footer.
   Dropped pricing cards / comparison tables / homepage stats-needs-how-why
   sections — MoneyToplist has no pages that use them. Blog-specific styles
   live in style-blog.css. */

     --amber (CTA accent) unchanged. --blue swapped from a muted teal to a
     genuinely blue hue — links were blending into scanned body text at the
     old value. New --heading token gives h2/h3 their own color instead of
     sharing --ink with <strong>/<b>, which is why the two used to be hard
     to tell apart at a glance.

     gradients, focus rings, soft borders. Keeping these in sync with the
     hex tokens above is what makes a recolor a :root-only edit: every rgba()
     in this file (and style-blog.css) that used to hardcode e.g. "0,113,188"
     now reads one of these instead, so it moves automatically when the hex
     value above changes. Pure rgba(255,255,255,X) / rgba(0,0,0,X) overlays
     (translucent white on dark sections, plain black shadows) are left as
     literals on purpose — they're palette-agnostic and don't need a token.
