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

Two items are being rebuilt, one is postponed. The page is not finished because the work is not finished.

What the artefact is

A short, unpolished register of what did not work, in the order it broke.

The lizard feeder. Servo motors on a 16-channel PWM driver, rubber-band spring-loaded boxes, an ESP32 — one box opened per day to release ten crickets for the bearded dragon it was built for. The lizard attacked the boxes and destroyed the mechanism. Version one is abandoned; it is being rebuilt with plastic containers.

The garden cameras. Postponed. The parts have arrived and are sitting in a box. No photographs and no claim until they are installed.

The front door. Built, then found to greet people who were not at the door. It is being rebuilt with a time-of-flight ranging sensor rather than being described as complete.

The garden automation. Partly manual. Some of it runs on schedule and some of it is a person. Both are true and the page says so.

What it proves

That this is a working estate and not a rendering: things break, budgets get spent on parts that are not installed yet, and hardware has to be designed around an animal's behaviour. Production experience is measured in rebuilds as much as in launches.

When it is delivered

Phase 7, with photographs of the rebuilt feeder and the installed cameras if they exist by then. If they do not, the entry stays as written — labelled rather than deleted.
