+   Stage tweak: keep hero carousel indicator dots symmetric.
+   Bootstrap-3's default `.carousel-indicators .active { width:12px;
+   height:12px; margin:0 }` makes the active dot bigger and zero-margin
+   while inactive stays at 10px with 1px margin. With only two slides
+   the size + margin swap shifts the dots visibly on each slide change.
+   Lock all dots to the inactive geometry so only the fill toggles.
