   HIRING-QUESTIONS READING MEASURE (v1.1.63)
   Page 452 (/cornerstone-admin-hiring-questions/) is long-form:
   its blocks sit directly in .prose with no wp:group wrapper and no
   full-width structural blocks (columns/tables/bands), so every
   element — paragraphs, the four long checklists, separators — sits
   in the same 70ch column and the page reads far narrower than
   sibling pages, whose card grids and (accidentally uncapped) lists
   fill the 72rem container. Measured: all running paragraphs
   site-wide are an identical 677px; only composition differs.
   Fix: bump the measure for this page only to the top of the
   documented 70–80ch range via the --measure token, so p/ul/hr widen
   together (677px → ~774px) and stay in proportion. Global .prose
   untouched.
