   `.container` pads 12px per side (half of its own 1.5rem gutter), but a row

   576px the container is full-width with no slack, so each `.g-5` row bled
   12px past the viewport on both sides.

   Normalising the horizontal gutter to 1.5rem on small screens makes the

   is untouched, so vertical spacing between stacked columns stays generous.
