/* Off-canvas mobile nav/mega-menu panels use position:fixed + transform
   to slide in from off-screen. Even though they're translated out of
   view, browsers still extend the document's scrollable width to fit
   them unless overflow-x is clipped here — that was cutting every
   page's visible content roughly in half on mobile. */
/* NOTE: overflow-x MUST be "clip" here, not "hidden". Setting overflow-x
   to any non-"visible"/"clip" value (like "hidden") forces the browser to
   also compute overflow-y as "auto" on this element (per the CSS Overflow
   spec's paired-axis rule), which turns <html>/<body> into a scroll
   container of their own. That breaks position:sticky for every
   descendant on the page (their sticky offset gets computed against this
   new container instead of the real viewport), which is why sections
   like the sticky case-studies stack on the homepage stopped pinning to
   the top after the first card. "clip" is exempt from that forcing rule,
   so it still clips horizontal overflow without creating a scroll
   container. */
