   GLOBAL GRID-BLOWOUT SAFETY NET
   CSS Grid items default to min-width:auto, which uses the
   intrinsic size of content (e.g. a large photo's natural
   pixel width) as a floor — this can silently force a grid
   track wider than its visual 1fr allocation, misaligning
   border-radius clips and any content near that edge, even
   though max-width:100% is already set above. Overriding
   min-width to 0 on every grid's direct children removes
   that floor everywhere a grid is used on this site.
