"""Inline-SVG charts from real data, for a venture's static pages.
Copy this file into ventures/<slug>/product/ and import it from your site
generator. Standard library only, like gen_site.py.
WHY INLINE SVG AND NOT A CHART LIBRARY. These pages are static files built by a
Python pipeline and served from GitHub Pages. A CDN chart library would add a
blocking third-party request, break the reviewer's no-unknown-script rule, show
nothing until JS runs, and render an empty box for anyone whose script blocked.
SVG generated at build time has the numbers baked in: it paints instantly, it
works with JS off, it survives being screenshotted into a post, and the figure
cannot silently disagree with the dataset because it IS the dataset.
WHAT A CHART IS FOR HERE. Not a research paper. A stranger gives the page about
two seconds. One number, large, that makes the scale of the thing land — then
the shape of the data underneath it. Accurate AND arresting; the accuracy is
what makes it arresting, because the numbers are real and specific.
Rules baked in so they cannot be forgotten:
* every mark is DIRECTLY LABELLED — no hover, no legend to decode, and it
keeps the palette legal for colour-blind readers;
* one axis, never two scales on one chart;
* a single series uses the sequential blue ramp; multiple series use a
validated categorical order, never cycled;
* text is ink-coloured, never series-coloured — a mark beside it carries
identity;
* grid and axes recede;
* every figure carries a caption naming the source and the date, because an
unattributed number on a page selling data is worth nothing;
* dark mode is honoured via prefers-color-scheme.
Palette validated with the dataviz palette checker (light and dark): lightness
band, chroma floor, CVD separation, normal-vision floor, contrast.

# this, not by reading it. The components carry their own surface so the library
# is safe to drop into a host page whose background it does not control, and the
# SVGs use currentColor so their text follows the same token.
