Restage, never paste
A screenshot carries another palette, another type scale and someone’s test data. The same screen built from mock atoms repaints with the tokens and is honest about being a diagram.
Sleek · the product voice
Quiet is the loudest register.
Nothing here is bigger than it needs to be. The evidence carries the page: a screen built from tokens, a card that shows its arithmetic, a rail where every number names its source.

Mechanism
Evidence, not assertion.

Show the working
A rate card that lists only totals is a claim. One that carries its intermediate rows is evidence, and it costs three lines of markup.
03
Derive every number
Each figure on a rail carries the note that says where it came from. A number without a derivation is decoration wearing a monospace face.
Specimen
A card that shows its arithmetic.
The intermediate rows are the argument. Remove them and the total becomes a number the reader has to trust; keep them and it becomes one they can check.

Precision is a claim you let the reader check.
The product voice and the editorial voice disagree about almost everything except this. One restages the invoice; the other restages the page. Both refuse to show a number they cannot source.
