   First Half Financial — landing.css
   Landing page only (the app uses firsthalf.css). Option "A, Daylight" (Eugene, 9 Oct 2026), second pass: livelier.
   The Halftime Financial look (Fraunces headlines, Archivo body, deep navy, teal) turned light, with more colour and one idea:
   concentric half-circles (a "first half" rising) behind an example of the real app in the opening. Colour rhythm down the page:
   mint-to-white opening, white stages, mint reassurances, a teal call to action, a navy planners strip.
   Version 1 (plainer) is kept as the git tag landing-v1-daylight.
