The negative-tracking cap was stated as `round(fontSize * -0.02)`, and
rounding it was wrong in both directions: at 76px it let -2 through when
the real cap is 1.52, and at 72px it failed a legitimate -1.4 because the
cap rounded down to 1. A rule that both over- and under-fires is not a
threshold worth tuning, so the comparison is now against the ratio itself
with fractional values allowed.
Two narrowing decisions come with it. The cap applies only to runs that
actually contain Han characters — Latin and numeric display (page
numbers, stat values) legitimately sets -0.03 to -0.05em, and 160 nodes
across the library were being flagged for it. And the 64px boundary is
gone, because below 48px the ratio is already self-limiting.
The clamp sits in `text()`, the one entry every generator goes through:
a single tracking literal is routinely shared by several sizes, so
fixing call sites one at a time is guaranteed to miss some. `trackcheck`
makes the rule enforceable outside the two generators that imported the
kit, which is how the drift got in unnoticed.

The scene-template library carried one deck against a dozen carousel and
tutorial boards, so anyone starting a presentation started from a blank
board. These six cover the archetypes that actually get presented:
consulting strategy, data review, editorial keynote, workshop notes,
case dossier and financial ledger.
Each is seven or eight boards built from a shared generator kit, so the
grid, type scale and board wrap stay one decision rather than six.
