+/* VHS hiccup: every so often a card drops out of the signal for half a
+   second -- a 1-2px jitter, a red/cyan split on the title, and a tracking
+   band sweeping down the panel, all inside one short window (the first 5%
+   of each cycle). Cards run three alternating phases with different periods
+   and offsets, so the board flickers organically instead of in lockstep.
+   The :not(.opacity-50) guard matters: while dnd-kit drives a drag it sets
+   an inline `transform` on the card, and a running animation would override
+   that inline value (animations sit above inline styles in the cascade) --
+   the card stops following the pointer. opacity-50 is exactly the class the
+   card gets while dragging, so the hiccup stands down for the duration.
+   (overflow: hidden keeps the tracking band clipped to the card while it
+   sweeps; the hover lift uses the separate `translate` property, so the
+   jitter doesn't fight it.) */
