   every rule above only exists on the .visible half of the selector, so before that

   opacity while you scrolled toward it. The instant the observer added .visible, the
   keyframe's own from{opacity:0} kicked in and yanked it back down to invisible before
   animating up again. Fix: give every one of those elements a matching *pre*-reveal
   hidden state, so they're already invisible by the time they scroll into view and the
   animation is the only thing you ever see. Gated behind html.js so a no-JS visitor
   still gets all content, and behind :not(.reduced-motion) so a reduced-motion visitor
   — whose intersection observer never runs, so .visible would never arrive — isn't
