Development record
The references page prints EMPTY as a consequence of the stacked-disclosure change (iss-2608231003138797): both bibliography panels are closed on load, CSS cannot force a details element open, and the ::details-content escape already used for .more is Chromium-only and not applied to .panel.fold. A reader printing /references/ from a fresh load gets one sheet carrying two headings and zero citations; before the change the panels were always-open blocks and the bibliography printed. Verified 2026-08-23: 1 page as loaded, 5 pages with both opened by hand.

- iss-2608231003138797The references page's two panels (References & sources, Inspirations) read as two odd parallel columns of very different length. Maintainer's model is the relationship page's Browse-as-a-list disclosure: stack the two as full-width boxes one under the other, both COLLAPSED by default, so the page opens as two closed headings a reader chooses between. This supersedes the reading-grid exemption added earlier the same day, which only stopped the shorter column stretching to match the taller one (report B of the 2026-08-23 second pass).
