/* ==========================================================================
   XPLOROO · About Us module
   about.css — Fully original, self-contained component. Scoped entirely
   under `.about` / `.about__*`, `.marquee`, `.stat-card` — never touches
   any other section's classes or tokens.

   Visual identity: one premium dark navy/purple card, matching the
   established "VIP Access" card language already used on
   vip-membership.html (see `.vipm-card` / `.vipm-vision` in
   styles/vip-membership.css) — same royal-purple / cherry-magenta /
   electric-blue / midnight-navy family, titanium-silver gradient border,
   soft inset highlight. Reimplemented locally under `--about-*` custom
   properties rather than reusing `.vipm-*` classes directly, so this file
   stays fully self-contained and vip-membership.css is never touched.
   The card's own ~90%-opaque dark fill is intentional in both themes (see
   the brief: "can retain its premium dark/navy appearance in both
   themes") — every color inside it below is hardcoded for that reason,
   not read from the shared light/dark tokens.
