+/**
+ * check-ported-globals-identical — a refactor that must change NOTHING it emits.
+ *
+ * Several shadow-root components carry their own copy of DX Life's base/_globals.scss rules, because
+ * page CSS cannot reach into a shadow root. The copies were MEASURED as byte-identical where they
+ * overlap (the Cyrillic stack 3x, strong{font-weight:500} 2x, scrollbar-gutter:stable 2x), so
+ * extracting them into library/styles/portedGlobals.js is DEDUPLICATION, not a fix — and the proof
+ * obligation is therefore unusual: the emitted CSS must be IDENTICAL before and after, or the
+ * refactor is wrong.
+ *
+ * ★ IT EXECUTES THE COMPONENT'S SETUP AND CAPTURES THE REAL ARGUMENT. It does NOT read source text.
+ * The first version of this harness hashed the SOURCE of the useShadowStyles(...) call, and that was
+ * a defect that made the gate useless for its one job: this refactor's whole purpose is to REPLACE a
+ * string literal with a function call, so the source text changes by construction. A text-hash gate
+ * fails on a perfect refactor and cannot tell that apart from a broken one — it measures the
+ * ARTIFACT (how the CSS is spelled) when the property under test is the OUTPUT (what the browser
+ * receives). It failed exactly that way on first run, on a refactor later proven correct.
+ *
+ * So: parse the SFC, stub every import, run the <script setup> body, and keep the first argument
+ * handed to useShadowStyles. That string is what gets injected into the shadow root. Hash THAT.
+ * No browser is launched and none is needed — the CSS is assembled in plain JS at setup time.
+ *
+ *     node internal/check-ported-globals-identical.mjs --write   (baseline)
+ *     node internal/check-ported-globals-identical.mjs           (compare)
+ *     node internal/check-ported-globals-identical.mjs --from <git-ref>
+ *         evaluate the components AS OF a git ref instead of the working tree — which is how the
+ *         pre-refactor baseline is recovered after the fact, without checking anything out.
+ *
+ * ⚠ WHITESPACE IS NORMALISED, declarations are NOT. A run of spaces or a newline between
+ * declarations cannot change rendering, and the concatenation seams legitimately move when a literal
+ * becomes a call. Selectors, properties, values and RULE GROUPING all survive normalisation — so
+ * splitting one grouped rule into two separate rules is still reported as a change, which is correct:
+ * it is the same CSS to a browser, but it is not the same stylesheet, and this gate's contract is
+ * "unchanged", not "equivalent".
+ *
+ * Exit 0 pass · 1 fail · 75 NOT MEASURED (a component could not be evaluated — never reported as a
+ * pass, because an unevaluated component proves nothing at all).

+ * ★ AND IT TAKES A LIST, NOT A SELECTOR, which the first draft of this module got wrong. GoalCard
+ * styles ONE heading class; RegionSectionCard GROUPS TWO (.rl-title and .region-card__title) into a
+ * single rule sharing one declaration block. A one-selector signature cannot reproduce the grouped
+ * form — it would emit two separate rules. Same CSS to a browser, but this refactor's whole proof is
