From “how long is it?” to “how does it scale?”

This remake adds a stronger comparative frame. Instead of one chart and one map, it gives you a full story stack: a synthetic landscape, a measurement-scaling curve, and a sensitivity panel that compares how much uncertainty comes from changing the WUI definition versus changing the ruler.

Fresh draft note: this version is still self-contained and synthetic, but it is designed to feel much closer to the real analysis interface you would eventually want on the website.
