    FIX: backdrop-filter on `nav` (from .scrolled, or the
    animation-timeline: scroll() shrink animation) creates a new
    containing block for descendants. .nav-links uses
    position: fixed to cover the viewport — but once nav has a
    backdrop-filter, that fixed positioning resolves against nav's
    box instead of the viewport, so the "full page" overlay shrinks
    down to just the header's area.

    Fix: whenever the mobile menu is open, strip nav's backdrop-filter
    and pause its scroll-driven shrink animation so .nav-links regains
    a true viewport-relative containing block.
