/* =========================================================
   ABOUT.CSS — /about, the operator dossier (entry [00]).

   /about used to ride on page.css, the auth-notice shell: one small centred
   card on the void. That shape is right for "check your email" and wrong for
   700 words — it rendered a reading page as a modal dialog. So /about has its
   own sheet now, and page.css is back to being the notice shell only.

   Shape: a real page of the site — homepage topbar and footer, the same
   1180px measure — opening with a gradient-clipped NICK, then a two-column
   dossier: a sticky data rail (portrait + mono key/value facts) beside the
   prose. The rail is the idea: about isn't a written page, it's the zeroth
   entry in the registry, so it carries the same accession chip and status dot
   as a project card.

   The topbar/footer rules are duplicated from homepage.css rather than
   extracted. The homepage stays deliberately self-contained (its ambient layer
   makes it a different animal), and a third "chrome" sheet for two consumers
   would cost an extra request to save forty lines.

   Same rules as decision #6 — no blur on text, no animation on a timer.
