/* ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
   SECTION MESH OPT-OUT + DIVIDER SUPPRESSION
   2026-04-27 v3 — Earlier mask-fade approach was actively making
   the seam worse (faded both sides of every boundary to trans-
   parent → visible cream band). Removed.
   This block now does only two things:
   1. [data-mesh="off"] suppresses the per-section mesh entirely
      so a section reads as flat cream/cream-dark — used to give
      the homepage two visual breathing rooms between the loud
      meshed sections.
   2. Hides the section-divider HRs (bare hairlines that competed
      with the mesh visual language).
   The seams between meshed sections are addressed in each page's
   inline mesh CSS via "edge-intensifier" blobs added directly
   to the section ::before backgrounds (see customer/index.html
   and welcome/index.html — radial-gradient blobs centred at -8%
   and 108% vertically).
