/* ---- MOBILE: NO SIDEWAYS SCROLL, NAV STILL PINNED ----
   Three things are handled here. None of them touch the copy or the
   desktop layout.

   1. The jump nav stays sticky, exactly as it is on desktop. It wraps
      instead of scrolling sideways, so every link is reachable, and
      everything is shrunk (11.6px, tight padding, compact CTA pushed
      right by margin-left:auto) to hold it to three short rows rather
      than four tall ones. Do not set position:static here: an earlier
      pass did, and the bar then scrolled away with the page.

   2. The comparison table unstacks into cards. It carries prose, not
      tick marks, so the feature-matrix tab pattern used on the audit
      page does not suit it: tabs would hide half of every answer. The
      moment becomes the card header, the two columns sit underneath,
      and their headings are restored as labels through ::before.

      SPECIFICITY WARNING. The desktop column widths are declared as
      "table.cmp tbody th" (0,1,3) and "table.cmp td.them" (0,2,2). A
      mobile override written as "table.cmp th,table.cmp td" is only
      (0,1,2) and silently loses, which is what squeezed the header
      cell into a 25% column and wrapped it one word per line. Every
      rule below is therefore scoped through tbody so it matches or
      beats the base rule. Keep it that way.

   3. Nothing else on the page may introduce a fixed min-width. If a
      wide table or grid is added later, give it a stacking rule at
      this breakpoint rather than an overflow-x container.        ---- */
