   Type    : 'Urbanist' (clean, geometric sans display) + 'Karla'
             (neutral, readable body) — a fresh pairing not reused
   Motif   : glucose ring settle — a slim ring arc that slowly settles
             into a steady, level position behind the bottle, echoing
             "balance" and steadiness rather than reusing the steady
             gauge settle (a needle-on-a-dial motif) used elsewhere
   Layout  : STRUCTURALLY UNIQUE HERO — a seventy-eighth distinct hero
             paradigm for this project: GLUCOSE RING SETTLE. A slim
             ring arc slowly settles into a level, steady position
             behind the bottle, echoing balance and steadiness -
             distinct from a solid orb, chevrons, corner frames,
             petal shapes, a ribbon orbit, a medallion ring, honeycomb
             cells, cross-hair lines, a drip arc, power bars, an EKG
             pulse line, a DNA helix, a hex node grid, an ascending
             arrow trail, expanding ripple rings, a crystal drop
             facet, a flex arc, a synapse spark web, a honeycomb bee
             path, a focus ring iris, a gummy bounce trail, a calm
             wave ring, an amber melt drip, a neon drop glow, a wave
             crest arc, a power slash, a radiant glow halo, a
             galloping trail, a nerve signal wave, a nerve root
             branch, a cell cluster orbit, a compass bearing arc, a
             thought bubble trail, rising flame wisps, citrus burst
             rays, a rising sun arc, silk strand waves, circuit pulse
             lines, golden thread weave, a page turn arc, a balance
             scale arc, a vital drop trail, a breeze wisp trail, a
             lantern glow drift, a heartbeat ring pulse, a dotted
             halo bloom, a cortex fold wave, a rosemary sprig sway, a
             neural node web, a heart line echo, a mobility ribbon
             flow, a ginkgo leaf drift, a signal stream cascade, a
             droplet arrow rise, a steady gauge settle, a verify scan
             sweep, a petal drift rise, a neural spark cascade, a
             zenith peak arc, a voltage arc crackle, a prism refract
             drift, a heat shimmer rise, a nectar ribbon swirl, an
             ember spiral rise, or a synapse pulse arc used in this
             project's other builds. The bottle image itself is
             NEVER clipped or masked by the ring - it stays fully
             open with object-fit:contain.
   Voice   : cautious, structure-function only - Gelacept supports
             glucose metabolism already within a normal range,
             metabolic health, and weight management as part of a
             healthy lifestyle. NEVER claims to treat, cure, manage,
             or replace medication for diabetes (Type 1, Type 2, or
             any other form), and never frames itself as an
             alternative to prescribed diabetes medication.
   SOURCING NOTE: the assigned competitor source (gelacept.com) is a
             SEVERE compliance case, more serious than a typical
             overclaim. It explicitly markets the product as a way to
             "Manage Type 2" diabetes, features testimonials from
             self-described diagnosed diabetics describing replacing
             "expensive diabetes medications" and getting glucose
             "consistently in the healthy range," and a FAQ answer
             referencing people "told they'll need strong medications
             for the rest of their lives." A bonus e-book titled
             "Diabetes Freedom" is described as revealing "12 common
             medications that can worsen insulin resistance and
             sabotage your results" - framing that risks discouraging
             adherence to prescribed diabetes medication, a genuine
             patient-safety concern. NONE of this diabetes-management
             framing, NONE of the diagnosed-patient testimonials, and
             NONE of the "Diabetes Freedom" bonus are reproduced
             anywhere on this site. Only the physical label's own
             honest, general structure-function claims are used:
             "Supports Glucose Metabolism," "Supports Metabolic
             Health," "Supports Weight Management." A fake countdown
             timer ("30:00"), an unverified "96% of customers order 6
             bottles" stat, and an unnamed "expert" testimonial with a
             generic name and stock photo were also not reproduced.
             The other 5 genuine bonus e-books (Fortifying Vitamins,
             Accelerated Metabolism, Nerve Renew Guide, Glycemic
             Rebalance Challenge, and a Personalized Usage Guide) are
             included, since their own descriptions are general
             wellness content without the medication-skepticism or
             diagnosis-specific framing of the excluded bonus.
             Confirmed pricing ($79/bottle for 2 bottles, total $158,
             was $358, +shipping; $69/bottle for 3 bottles, total
             $207, was $537, free shipping; $49/bottle for 6 bottles,
             total $294, was $1,074, free shipping) and the 60-day
             guarantee (available after at least 30 days of use) are
             used exactly as confirmed, since these terms themselves
             are not compliance issues.
