+- **Verify contrast.** Body text must hit ≥4.5:1 against its background; large text (≥18px or bold ≥14px) needs ≥3:1. The most common failure: muted gray body text on a tinted near-white. If the contrast is even close, bump the body color toward the ink end of the ramp — light gray "for elegance" is the single biggest reason AI designs feel hard to read.

 - Cap body line length at 65–75ch.
 - Hierarchy through scale + weight contrast (≥1.25 ratio between steps). Avoid flat scales.
+- Cap font-family count at 3 (display + body + optional mono). More than 3 reads as indecision, not richness. One well-tuned family with weight contrast usually beats three competing typefaces.
+- No all-caps body copy. Reserve uppercase for short labels (≤4 words), section eyebrows (used sparingly per the Absolute bans), and badges. Sentences in ALL CAPS are unreadable at body sizes.

+- **No aphoristic-cadence body copy as a default voice.** "Not a feature. A different architecture." / "X. No Y." / "X. Just Y." used as a recurring rhetorical pattern is the Stripe-Press / Klim cadence — once is voice, three or more times on a page is the AI-tell. If every section copy lands on a 2-3-word rebuttal sentence, rewrite. Specific, not aphoristic.
