design: the finish review, worked

The reviewer's verdict was `fix`, and the finding underneath the eight
items is the one worth stating plainly: five devices were declared and
about a third shipped. Two were dead selectors nothing referenced, two
more only existed behind a login, and every page a visitor could
actually reach was stock, ink and a single rule. A vocabulary written
into a stylesheet is not a design; it is a plan for one.

THE PERFORATION NOW RUNS THROUGH THE SIGN-IN FORM, which is where it
was always supposed to be. The address above the line goes to the
server as a blind index it cannot reverse; the passphrase below it does
not go anywhere. That is not a diagram of the promise — it is the
promise happening inside one form, on a page anybody can open, and it
is the single clearest place in the product to draw it.

THE STOCK CODE IS WIRED. A vault belonging to somebody else prints its
whole contents on manila. Not a badge reading "shared": whose sheet you
are writing on is something you want to know before you type, which is
why a cloakroom uses different stock rather than a note in the corner.
Four lines in vault.js, and jsHighWater says so.

THE SECOND COLOUR REACHES A PUBLIC PAGE. Signup's step marker is a real
sequence, so it prints as the overprint a ticket gives one — small,
letterspaced, in the negative ink, because --contra-ink-2 is a
large-text colour and 11.5px red would have been the rule broken by the
person who wrote it. Both new pairs are measured into the table.

THE DEAD CSS IS GONE rather than left looking like intent.
[data-number] and its label were referenced by nothing.

Two competing sheet edges on every wide screen: the console draws a
rule down the rail and mine landed 55px inboard of it with a dead strip
between. The rail's is structural and stays; the page's is gone.

The field label sits on its rule now. The distance was the input's own
text box, so shortening that was the fix — the previous round removed
margin that was never there and called it done.

The ticket ends. An overprint carries the build serial on every sheet,
moved out of index.html so it is one string with one home rather than a
line the front page happened to own.

Two things the reviewer asked for that are answered rather than fixed.
The caps furniture stays on the system stack: League Gothic is a poster
face and goes spindly at 11.5px, which is the opposite of what a field
label is for. The decision and its cost are now written down where the
labels are defined. And the contract itself was corrected — it still
promised a condensed uppercase title after h1 had been given sentence
case for a good reason, and it now names the two screens the
perforation appears on rather than implying every one.

The roll is corroborable outside its own claim: seed, catalog revision,
assigned index and the ordered list of seven are in the world payload.
