Pause overlay: tighten the caption, lift the field grid
Both found by looking at the thing render, which nothing had done before — the earlier work on this overlay was verified through the CSSOM because the browser pane would not composite frames, so the geometry and timing were confirmed and the LOOK was not. Michroma is already a wide face, and .4em on top of it set GAME PAUSED at 176px against a 190px field: 93%, running bracket to bracket, so the readout was competing with the lock for the same width. .22em measures 154px, 81%, leaving 18px clear at each bracket. text-indent moves with it so the word stays optically centred. The field grid was drawn at opacity .3, which composited over the void band is 1.44:1 against its own ground. On a dark table map that is not a faint grid, it is no grid at all. .45 measures 1.80:1 — present as texture, still far below the 3.1:1 --rb-line is chosen for, so the amber lock stays the only thing asking for attention. Both measured in a browser with Michroma confirmed loaded, not estimated. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
