     right, subtle diagonal tension. The -2deg tilt adds hand-crafted
     irregularity. The cubic-bezier easing has anticipation (negative
     control point) and overshoot (>1 control point) — the thumb
     pulls back slightly before sliding, then overshoots the
     destination before settling. */
