       desktop banner (fixed-aspect tiles in a 9-column grid) — once the
       section stacks tall on mobile, that same tile count/size can't cover
       the new height. Fixed by switching to fewer, taller columns and
       letting rows stretch to fill whatever height the stacked layout ends
       up needing, instead of a fixed aspect-ratio per tile.
       Height is set to 130% (not 100%) to keep an overscan margin so the
