  /* ROOT-CAUSE FIX, founder wrap was rendering ~885px and pinned left with the
     right half of the section empty. Cause is a class-name collision, not a
     float: the globally-loaded gb-home.css has
         .gb-app .founder{display:grid;grid-template-columns:.9fr 1.1fr;...}
     where on the HOME page .founder IS the two-column grid. On this page
     .founder is the full-bleed SECTION and the real grid is the inner
     .founder-grid, so that rule turns the SECTION into a .9fr/1.1fr grid. The
     lone child (.wrap) lands in the .9fr track (~45% of the section, ~885px on
     a wide viewport) and the 1.1fr column sits empty; margin:auto looks ignored
     because the wrap fills its short track. (Hero is unaffected because no
     .bhero grid rule exists; mobile was fine because gb-home line 857 collapses
     .founder to one column at <=920px.) Fix: stop the SECTION inheriting that
     grid so it behaves like every other full-bleed section, a plain block whose
     inner .wrap centers at 1240px. Anchored to #main (specificity 1,2,2) to beat
     gb-home's .gb-app .founder (0,2,0); scoped to .founder so nothing else moves.
     Longer term the cleaner fix is to rename this section's class (e.g.
     blog-founder) to avoid the collision outright. */
