+| Mulish not loaded | a declared `Mulish` `@font-face` that didn't load (`document.fonts.check` false) → the page silently falls back to a system font |
+
+**Headline typography & line breaks** (closes the "lint passes ≠ brand-correct" gap)
+
+The deterministic checks above read color, spacing and shape — but a heading can satisfy all of
+them and still read as generic SaaS through *weight* and *tracking*, the exact "faux-weight or
+tightly-tracked black headlines" the skill blacklist names. These read the rendered type instead.
+Measured on nimiq.com: every heading renders at weight **600/700**, `letter-spacing: 0`, and
+`text-wrap: balance`; nothing on the page strands a single word. So:
+
+| Check | Threshold | Why |
+|---|---|---|
+| faux-black headline weight | heading ≥ 24px at `font-weight ≥ 800` | nimiq.com tops out at 700; 800+ "black" is the generic tell |
+| tight negative heading tracking | heading ≥ 24px with `letter-spacing ≤ -0.01em` | nimiq.com headings are `0`; negative tracking cramps the headline |
+| wrapping heading w/o `text-wrap: balance` | a heading ≥ 20px that wraps to ≥ 2 lines without `balance`/`pretty` | how nimiq.com keeps every headline evenly split |
+| orphaned last word | any text ≥ 20px that wraps with a **single word alone** on the last line | nimiq.com has **zero**; a stranded word (the circled "verified") is the defect |
+| heading line-height off | heading ≥ 24px with `line-height/font-size ≤ 1.05` or `≥ 1.5` | nimiq.com headings render **1.25–1.3**; 1.0 cramps, 1.6 floats |
+| cramped body line-height | body copy with `line-height/font-size < 1.35` | nimiq.com body is **1.5–1.56**; tighter hurts readability |
+| non-brand font on text | a text element whose first font family isn't Mulish/Muli/Fira (≥3 uses) | nimiq.com is **Mulish** + Fira Mono for data; an Inter/Roboto headline reads instantly off |
+
+`--fix` also **injects the `text-wrap` rule** (`h1–h4 { balance } p,li { pretty }`) once, before `</head>` — the mechanical cure for orphaned titles, applying the exact technique nimiq.com uses on every heading.
+
+Weight/tracking are heading-scoped (buttons and bold body labels are legitimately heavy). The
+orphan check is general (it caught a body banner, not a heading) but gated at ≥ 20px so calibrated
+fine-print under 20px — which wasn't measured on the reference — is never flagged.
