{# ── Brand / story panel ──
Main Street storefront illustration, full bleed (design review 2026-07-22,
"Option B" of three directions) -- one caption line resting on the
illustration replaces the old three-bullet list + topic pills, both cut
in review. verify_otp.html shares this same .auth-brand panel with its
own, different copy (.auth-brand-body/.auth-headline) -- untouched here. #}
