Documenter 286aa12bb0 site: cut the template's own labels out of the pages
Point 7 of the page-wording review. The pages no longer show their data
structure as headings, and they no longer explain their own conventions.

- Level 1 is one screen: claim, status badge, three figures, the technology
  row, and one sentence carrying one link. Measured in headless Chrome at
  1440x900: 1404-1845 px tall before, exactly 900 px (no scroll) after, on
  all six area pages.
- DocPage: no kicker line, no visible level label, no "Evidence for this
  page" heading or instruction note, no "Drill-downs" list, no
  "Status <word> - sentence" footer. The artefact table starts at level 2,
  under the heading "Artefacts"; the history timeline is level 2 only.
- Landing page: "Start here" link text gone, "How to read this site" panel
  gone, the footer's status-label explainer gone.
- Content, presentation only, no claim softened: the leading H1 that
  duplicated the page title removed from all 41 documents; level 1 bodies
  reduced to the constraint as ordinary prose plus the way in;
  "**Status: ...**" prefixes removed from the artefact stubs; "## Drill-downs"
  and "## Period and confidence" removed from the level 2 pages, with the
  cross-area links moved into the prose.
- The six level 1 claims are now sentences with a subject, and use commas
  instead of middots. Same facts, no new ones.

Not in this commit: the 35 level 2 and 3 claims still use the compact CV
style. That is a voice decision for Sam, not a wording tidy-up.

make validate: 41 documents, 0 violations. go test ./...: pass.

artefact

The product shipped and customers still run it. The rebuild on the current stack is not finished and is labelled as unfinished everywhere it is mentioned.

What the artefact is

The product in use: a player on commodity hardware — a small Raspberry Pi or a microcontroller class device — driving any HDMI screen, with fleet control from the platform: switch screens on and off, rotate, mirror, lay out multiple screens, coordinate boards, and synchronise playback across a site. Content is built by the customer from complex animation down to a simple image rotation, and the system adapts to the board it finds rather than demanding a specification.

What it proves

The commercial read: a market was overpriced, the substitute was built on commodity hardware, and it was sold and operated for years. Twelve adoptions over time, three businesses still running. That is a product, not a project.

Limits stated on the page

Twelve is cumulative adoption and three is the current count — the distinction is kept because inflating it would be the easiest lie on this site. The rebuild is in progress. No revenue figures or customer names beyond type of business are published.

When it is delivered

Phase 7 for screenshots and a demonstration recording, captured from the running product. The one-liners for reference customers are approved for the salon and the financial services business only.
