+ The limit belongs to the group, not the page. A landing page asks for the same thing more than once on purpose: the sign-up in the bar, again under the opening claim, again in a banner halfway down and in the closing band. Each of those is one ask repeated where the reader has arrived, not a second ask competing with the first, and a rule that counted primaries across the page would forbid the thing a marketing page is built to do. This rule came from Product as one primary per view, and there it is right: a view is one screen with one task, and two primaries on it really are two tasks. On a page that scrolls through several sections the view is the wrong unit. The group is the one a reader compares.

- Never for: Ranking a row of these against each other. A footer's five social links are peers; one of them drawn heavier says the other four are lesser, which is not a thing anybody meant to say. And never inverse on the ordinary page ground: against it the fill carries roughly six times the contrast of the brand, so the primary beside it stops reading as the primary and one-primary-per-view is broken with no second primary anywhere in sight. And never for a control that has to be found rather than recognised: with no fill, a plain one is a glyph until it is hovered, so it belongs where the reader already knows something is — a corner, a row of marks, the end of a header — and not adrift on a page.

  That is the one structural difference from product's menu, and it was forced rather than chosen: when this was built, this package's Button was an anchor with a required href, so it was a link and could not be a trigger; ButtonIcon is a real button and has no words. A set of destinations is chosen by reading them, so the trigger needs words, and nothing in this package draws a button with words. Drawing one here is the only honest answer left — and it is confined to this component rather than offered as a new button, because the moment it takes a variant it is a second place a button is decided.

- - **Solid weight means selected** *(applies to a variant not built yet)* — Solid is not an alternative style, it is what a selected icon looks like. A tab or a navigation item renders regular at rest and swaps to solid when it becomes the current one, so the weight change is what carries the selection. The swap changes weight only — the same glyph at the same size, so the shape stays recognisable and just fills in. Marketing has fewer selected states than Product does, which is the reason to hold the meaning rather than to relax it: a solid glyph used decoratively here teaches a reader that solid means nothing, and they carry that into the product.
78
+ - **Light weight needs size to survive, and the largest step wants it** — Quill ships every system glyph three times — light, regular and solid — as separate components chosen at the import site. Icon has no weight prop and cannot have one, so nothing in this system can observe the choice, let alone enforce it.
79
+
80
+ Size settles the light weight, from both ends. At xs its thinnest strokes fall below a pixel and drop out, leaving a shape that reads as broken rather than as light, so light belongs at md and above. At the top of the ramp it is the better weight rather than merely an allowed one: a glyph carries its stroke weight through any scale, so a regular glyph drawn for 24px renders its strokes at twice that width at xl, and reads as heavy rather than confident. A marketing page puts glyphs at that size — a callout, a highlighted block — where a product screen rarely does, which is why this half is Marketing's own. At rest, regular from sm through lg, and light at xl.
81
+
82
+ What size does not settle is regular against solid. That is a question about what the glyph means, and icon-weight-within-a-set answers it. This rule previously claimed size decided all three, and named steps above xl that the ramp no longer has — the first is the fault Product's version of this rule was corrected for.

- - **Match the glyph weight to the icon size** *(applies to a variant not built yet)* — Quill ships every system glyph three times — light, regular and solid — as separate components chosen at the import site. Icon has no weight prop and cannot have one, so nothing in this system can observe the choice, let alone enforce it. Size is what should decide it: a glyph carries its stroke weight through any scale, so a regular-weight glyph drawn for 24px renders its strokes at over three times that width when placed at display size, and reads as heavy rather than confident. At rest, use regular from sm through lg, and light at xl, 2xl and display — selection is the one thing that overrides this, and it only ever moves regular to solid.
84
+ - **In a set of icons, weight marks the current one** — Quill ships every system glyph three times — light, regular and solid — as separate components chosen at the import site, and Icon has no weight prop, so nothing here can observe the choice.
85
+
86
+ Within a set of sibling icons — a row of tabs, a segmented control — the weight is what says which one is current: regular at rest, solid once selected, the same glyph at the same size so the shape stays recognisable and simply fills in. That is the one cue for selection that does not depend on colour, and it survives only while nothing else in the set is solid. Reaching for solid inside a set because it looks better spends it.
87
+
88
+ Outside a set there is nothing to distinguish, and solid claims nothing about selection. The arrow after a standalone link, a mark beside a heading, an icon in a button — none of these sit among siblings competing to be current, and a filled shape is recognised faster than an outlined one, which is the reason to show a glyph rather than words.
89
+
90
+ This replaces a rule that said solid means selected everywhere. Marketing has more lone glyphs than Product and fewer sets, so the broad version cost it most: Link's solid arrow had to be recorded as an exception to it, when the arrow was never the case the rule protects.

  - **A section that paints a ground sets the ink to go with it** — A page sits on color.bg.page, and a section that separates itself from it takes one of three grounds. color.bg.subtle is the light one and needs nothing further — the page's own ink still reads on it. The other two are dark and do not: color.bg.brand-strong takes color.fg.on-brand-strong, and color.bg.brand takes color.fg.on-solid. Both are white, and both are written as the role rather than the white they resolve to. Set one of those backgrounds without its ink and the text inherits whatever the page was already using, which is near-black on a dark band — legible to nobody, and invisible to every check here, because each pair passes contrast on its own and nothing can tell whether a section used both.

  What this is not about is every row of controls. A set of filter chips, a pagination strip, a toolbar, a link sitting after a sentence — none of these is the page asking for something, and stacking them to full width would turn a strip the eye skims into a list it has to read. The test is whether the row is the call to action the section was written for.
