A portrait phone got a square felt, so the vertical room the layout had
already measured was published and then dropped: 522px of room under a
366px table on an iPhone 14, 638 under 406 on a Pro Max. The cost was
seat names — 44px pucks with five of twelve clipped.
--feltAspect: 1.5 spends it. Twelve seats at 390x844 go from a 44px puck
with five names clipped to 66px with one; five seats go from three
clipped to none; the Pixel 7's twelve-seat ring goes to zero. 1.6 and
1.7 measure byte-identical, so 1.5 is where the sweep stops paying. The
three smaller phones are room-bound at any cap and measured identical
from 1.15 to 1.7.
The first version of this was a no-op. The rule went into
@media (max-width: 700px), and @media (max-width: 900px) below it set
the same property back to 1 — both match a phone, same specificity,
later one wins. It measured as 1 on every phone while reading perfectly.
The 900px rule is now a 701-900px range, and feltShape.test.js resolves
--feltAspect through the media queries the way the cascade does so the
next one of these is caught.
Also tried and removed: a floor under the max-height, so a tall bar
couldn't press the table flat. Twelve all in with nine side pots takes
the bar to 341px, leaving 142px of room at 360x640; floored to 242 the
felt keeps its shape by putting five of twelve seats behind the bar,
unfloored it is flat with all twelve visible. The slit it defended
against came from forcing the custom property by hand. A test asserts
its absence with the numbers.
Audit: 4 failing configurations and 5 offenders down to 2 and 3, both
remaining ones pre-existing. 776 unit tests pass.
