Five destination cards rendered as five identical blue bands. The photos
were fine and all different - the cards were the problem. Each card's
image slot carried TWO images (an absolutely-positioned image-filled
plate AND the real image node) inside a band authored 56px tall against
a 130px photo, so all that survived the clip was each photo's sky.
The duplicate plate is dropped (the image node wins - it is what the
image pipeline fills and re-searches), the band grows to the photo's own
declared height when it would hide more than half of it, and the starved
rail-card repair now reads fixed-width DESCENDANTS and assigns the
demand as a definite width: an out-of-flow photo plate contributes
nothing to a hug, so fit_content re-starved the very cards it was meant
to rescue (126px against a 200px plate). Replaying the measured document
through the repair loop: 4 geometry diagnostics to 0, cards 79px to
200px.
