/**
 * StarzMeet — the home hero.
 *
 * ONE PASS. An earlier version of this file grew three stacked "passes" on top
 * of each other and reached 1,141 lines with `.szm-hero-ezra` defined fifteen
 * times. That is not a tidiness complaint: a later pass introduced a two-column
 * rule an earlier media query did not know to override, and the hero collapsed
 * to zero-width text 3,237px tall on a phone. Anything added here belongs in the
 * section it affects, not appended to the end.
 *
 * TWO THINGS THIS THEME WILL CATCH YOU WITH
 *
 * 1. `html { font-size: 10px }` — the old 62.5% trick — so 1rem is ten pixels,
 *    not sixteen. Every length below is px on purpose; a `44rem` written with
 *    the usual assumption silently became 440px once already.
 * 2. A rule outside a media query beats one inside it. Reset
 *    `grid-template-columns` in the stacked query, not just the areas.
