+That rule is about headings. It stops at the slots around them — the eyebrow
+over an h2, the rail link pointing at it, a nav item, the gloss under a link.
+Those name a topic. They don't argue, concede, or set anything up.

+Three on the landing took two attempts each before landing somewhere plain:

+    What the wall skipped   ->  More capabilities
+    What's going on         ->  Line by line

+Every attempt in between was a phrase doing rhetorical work — meeting an

+reader scanning the rail is asking whether the thing they want is in there, and
+only a name answers that.

+The test: read the label with the page hidden. If it doesn't say what's in the
+section, it's decoration.

+## If the heading won't come, the section is the problem
+
+The landing's last section carried three subjects at once — a heading about the
+documentation, a lead listing app types, and eight links listing capabilities.
+Three rewrites of the heading failed in a row, because no heading summarises
+three subjects.
+
+Cut the section to one subject first; the heading writes itself afterwards. The
+same pass also deleted a lead that enumerated the eight links sitting directly
+below it, each of which already carried its own gloss. A lead that lists what
+the layout is already showing is doing the layout's job.
