Per review, mixed photo/no-photo rows read as ragged ("the ones without feel
lacking"). Make every brief rest card carry a banner so the grid is uniform: a
compact 16:9 photo when available, otherwise a calm placeholder tinted by the
card's topic accent color (the same per-topic hue as the accent line) with the
topic word set faint in serif. A failed/blocked image falls back to the same
placeholder, so cards never look broken and heights stay identical. Hero remains
the single large image. Light desaturation on photos; no heavy tint.
