+ * a faint glow); clicking / tapping emits a thin ripple that shoves
+ * particles aside.
+ *
+ * Trails are drawn by erasing the previous frame with a low-alpha
+ * `destination-out` pass, so the CSS gradient painted behind the canvas
+ * element keeps showing through instead of being flooded by an opaque fill.
