/* ==========================================================================
   18 · MOTION
   Three rules this layer obeys:
   1. Content is visible by default. The hidden-then-revealed state is applied
      only when JS has added .paras-anim to <html>, so a JS failure or a blocked
      script can never leave the page blank.
   2. .paras-anim is never added when the visitor asks for reduced motion, so
      everything below simply does not exist for them.
   3. Only opacity and transform are animated — both composited, so none of
      this touches layout or costs a repaint.
