  Layout:

          .stories-quote-card × N    — each card is 100% of viewport width
      .stories-carousel-dots         — sits below the viewport

  Accessibility:
    • .stories-slides-viewport has role="region" + aria-label (set in HTML)
    • aria-live="polite" on the viewport announces the current slide text
    • Each card has aria-hidden="true" when not active (set by JS)
    • prefers-reduced-motion: skip translate, fade instead
