⚠️ Small text: 14px may be hard to read on mobile. Consider 16px+.

✅ Optimal line spacing: 1.71 ratio ensures comfortable reading.

✅ Strong hierarchy: Headlines are 3.7x larger than body text.

✅ Good performance: Using 2 font families keeps load times fast.

✅ Smart font loading: Using font-display: swap prevents invisible text during load.

⚠️ Risky: Text appears on background images without overlay protection.
