 /*
- * paper.css — Paper-texture primitives (BD.W-PAPER-MORPHISM, the texture+blend
- * redesign — the grain/grit must be PLAINLY VISIBLE; if you squint, it FAILS).
+ * paper.css — Paper-texture primitives (BG.W-PAPER-TEXTURE-UNIFY — ONE warm
+ * raster tooth PRIMARY; feTurbulence RETIRED as the primary, DEMOTED to an
+ * `@supports`-gated relief enhancement).
  *
  * Two composable Tailwind `@utility` declarations:
  *   - paper-underpaint: fixed, app-root, fullscreen tooth texture at z-index -1
  *   - paper-grain-overlay: ::after tooth overlay for individual surfaces
  *
- * THE FIX (the headline): the prior `feTurbulence bf=0.65 4-oct` + `feBlend
- * multiply in2=SourceGraphic` cloud was a self-cancelling no-op — a fine cloud
- * averaged to grey on hiDPI, and `overlay`/`soft-light` collapse to IDENTITY
- * against a near-white cream wash (L≈0.98) / near-black ink wash (the blends only
- * bite mid-grey backdrops; the paper register lives on the poles). Measured std
- * 0.02–0.86 — invisible by math.
+ * THE HISTORY the design is immune to (KS-PAPER §1.1): the paper register was
+ * built three times on procedural SVG noise; the user rejected the SVG-noise
+ * path TWICE ("disgusting metallic"). The class recurred a third time (D-2): the
+ * grey `saturate=0` tooth borrowed ALL its warmth from the substrate, so once
+ * the universal warm plane was retired, multiply desaturated surfaces below the
+ * C 0.02 warm floor and the tooth read metallic-gray. Two structural causes: (a)
+ * `feDiffuseLighting` computes normals from a noise bump-map → an anisotropic
+ * brushed-metal sheen ("specular IS the metal"); (b) grey-at-source warmth was
+ * borrowed, never baked.
  *
- * THE TEXTURE — `--paper-grain-tooth`: a COARSE anisotropic grey-RGB speckle
- * (`baseFrequency='0.04 0.09'` = grain direction, 2 octaves), KEEP the RGB
- * (`feColorMatrix saturate=0` → grey, never zero it), per-channel
- * `feComponentTransfer` slope-1.8/intercept-(-0.4) CONTRAST-STRETCH (the
- * letterpress bite) + `feFuncA slope=0 intercept=1` (FULL OPAQUE alpha — the
- * grey speckle is painted straight, the blend carries the darken/lighten; NOT the
- * lens-A luminance→alpha matrix that gives a near-empty texture). `<filter
- * color-interpolation-filters='sRGB'>` pins sRGB (identical Chrome↔Safari,
- * deterministic seed). NO `feBlend` mud op. Tile 140px (coarse tooth reads as
- * STRUCTURE, survives hiDPI, divides cleanly DPR 1/2/3).
+ * THE FIX — warmth BAKED AT SOURCE, no lighting primitive (KS-PAPER §3.Q1):
+ * `--paper-grain-tooth` is now a WARM RASTER tooth — a deterministic, engine-
+ * invariant, warm-ecru fiber weave composed from crossed `repeating-linear-
+ * gradient` fibers (two fine crossed bands at incommensurate periods + one
+ * coarse raking band; every stop a warm-ecru/umber `oklch()`, mean C ≈ 0.045,
+ * 2-3× the 0.020 warm floor). It reads warm over ANY substrate — bare, dark, or
+ * washed — the D-2 substrate-warmth dependency SEVERED. It has NO lighting
+ * primitive, NO normals, NO specular term: a warm raster cannot read metallic
+ * (KS-PAPER R2). All periods divide the 140px tile evenly → seamless repeat.
  *
- * THE BLEND LAW (the decisive, physically-true move): `multiply` (light — ink
+ * THE DEMOTED feTurbulence — `--paper-grain-relief` (default `none`): the
+ * procedural noise survives ONLY as a capability-gated ENHANCEMENT, layered
+ * ABOVE the raster in the same `background-image` stack, NEVER load-bearing. It
+ * is a WARM-DUOTONE feTurbulence (the grey noise mapped umber→ecru through an
+ * `feComponentTransfer` `table` ramp) with NO `feDiffuseLighting`/lighting term
+ * (the metallic primitive is retired) at a partial layer alpha — a subtle warm
+ * fiber grain, never the sheen. sRGB-pinned, deterministic seed. Gated behind
+ * `@supports (backdrop-filter: blur(1px))` (the library's capable-engine probe)
+ * so a lean engine paints the always-warm raster alone.
+ *
+ * THE BLEND LAW (UNTOUCHED — the physically-true move): `multiply` (light — ink
  * sinks into the paper's pits → darken) / `screen` (dark — fiber catches light →
  * lighten). Baseline, sRGB-safe, identical both engines. Plain per-mode arms.
+ * The always-present `background-image` longhand + opacity-only engage discipline
+ * (design-idioms §12 anti-pop) survives the swap: opacity is the only engaged
+ * channel; the image is never `none → image`.
  *
- * THE ALPHA: `--paper-grain-opacity` re-calibrated to the JND floor (light 0.22 /
- * dark 0.16 — glass-fx.css / dark-arm.css; the inversion the measurements force:
- * multiply on cream is gentle → MORE, screen on ink bites hard → LESS).
- *
- * The LIBRARY FENCE: `--glass-grain-opacity` (0.025/0.045) is BYTE-UNTOUCHED — the
- * calm glass identity stands; paper is loud, glass is a whisper. That separation
- * IS the design.
+ * THE LIBRARY FENCE: `--glass-grain-opacity` (0.025/0.045) is BYTE-UNTOUCHED —
+ * the calm glass whisper stands; paper is warm material, glass is a whisper. That
+ * separation IS the design (the register fence, KS-PAPER §3.Q3).

-   BD.W-PAGE-FIELD / BD.W-GLASS-FIELD — the WARM COLORFUL FIELD register
+   BG.W-FIELD-AURORA — the WARM COLORFUL FIELD register is RETIRED here.
    ───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
-   The single highest-leverage piece: it turns the gray storybook WARM. A
-   per-route four-layer technicolor CEL (amber key → terracotta mid → sand
-   bounce + a warm over-glaze toward the --glass-key corner) PLUS a wide
-   low-chroma BASE WASH that raises the floor everywhere, painted at FIELD
-   lightness (L 0.90-0.93 light / 0.28-0.34 dark — where the gamut admits
-   REAL chroma, NOT the gamut-bound L0.98 plate) OVER the decoupled
-   --neutral-0 floor (KEEP-NEUTRAL, untouched, never deleted).
-
-   ONE primitive, TWO acceptance floors (glass-floor ~0.012 composite-behind-
-   glass + field-floor 0.045 ground). The library glass material is BYTE-
-   UNTOUCHED — it finally has a backdrop worthy of it.
-
-   THE WARM-BOUND IS A PAINT INVARIANT: --field-h clamps the route's
-   --field-h-raw to [25,95] IN THE CSS calc, so an inline raw:210 CANNOT
-   paint teal/navy. The teal/navy purge is enforced at the paint layer.
-
-   OPT-IN: the warm stops only render under `[data-paper-field]` (the demo
-   chassis sets it per glass route) — the calm neutral underpaint stays the
-   default for solid-chrome routes; --neutral-0 stays decoupled + calm.
-
-   CROSS-ENGINE: pure compositor CSS — radial/conic-gradient + oklch() +
-   transform only. NO backdrop-filter:url, NO SVG goo, NO trig. oklch ≥ Safari
-   15.4, @property ≥ 16.4, gradients/transform forever. The WebKit premultiply-
-   toward-black desaturation hole is dodged: every warm 0-alpha stop is an
-   explicit `oklch(L C H / 0)` warm color, NEVER bare `transparent`.
+   The `.paper-field` CSS plane (the per-route four-layer technicolor CEL +
+   base wash + cel-drift) is SUPERSEDED by the ONE shell `<Aurora>` (a
+   recessive vividness:0 painterly field) mounted in AppShell.vue behind every
+   NON-focal route. The grain register (`.paper-underpaint` /
+   `.paper-grain-overlay::after`) below is the SURVIVOR — a clean break, no
+   alias (`.paper-field`, its `.dark` arm, the `::before` cel-drift, the
+   `@keyframes field-cel-drift`, and the `--field-h-raw`/`--field-intensity`
+   @property regs are all DELETED). `proof:no-paper-field` asserts the recipe
