/* Frontline press palette — "black" edition. A near-black neutral ground
   (rather than the earlier warm espresso) paired with cream, one reserved
   signal red and a set of confident accent panels — all our own, not sampled.
   Ink doubles as the dark ground and the type colour on light panels, keeping
   the site a duotone. Every pairing is verified against WCAG AA. */
