- * WHY: Seeds all homepage sections for LetItRip collectibles marketplace — defines the homepage layout and content.
- * WHAT: 24 sections covering welcome, carousel, stats, trust, categories, brands, products, auctions, pre-orders, banner, features, reviews, stores, events, blog, whatsapp, faq, newsletter, social, bundles, prize-draws, brand-filtered, event-raffles.
+ * WHY: Seeds the homepage layout — which sections render, in what order, with what copy.
+ * WHAT: 22 sections (21 enabled + 1 deliberately disabled), ordered 1..21 contiguously.
+ *
+ * ORDER follows current marketplace-homepage research rather than the previous
+ * arbitrary arrangement: hero → trust → orient (categories) → shop (products,
+ * auctions, pre-orders, bundles) → supply (stores) → social proof (reviews) →
+ * engage (events, raffles, prize draws) → editorial (blog) → convert (seller
+ * banner, newsletter) → reassure (stats, security, community, FAQ, brands).
+ *
+ * Baymard's finding drives the top: a static hero outperforms a carousel, and
+ * the one documented carousel win came from demoting it BELOW a static hero.
+ * So `welcome` is first and owns the page's single <h1>; `carousel` sits under
+ * it and its slide titles render as <h2>.
+ *
+ * COPY IS CATALOGUE-NEUTRAL on purpose. "Shop by Category" stays correct
+ * however the catalogue changes; "Burst & X Series" goes stale the moment it
+ * broadens. Two brand-filtered Beyblade product strips were removed for this
+ * reason — and because they filtered the shared 12-item featured set
+ * client-side, so they usually rendered empty anyway.
+ *
+ * 🛑 Every field set here is one the renderer actually READS. Before this pass
+ * the seed configured banner buttons, trust indicators, a features list, blog
+ * display flags and the entire carousel config, none of which
+ * `lib/section-renderer.tsx` forwarded. If you add a field, confirm it reaches
+ * a component prop — see the config-coverage check in the plan.
