- Drive the sticky-fade identity overlay's visibility synchronously from the scroller's top-scroll attribute (CSS :has), and seed its leading project synchronously, so it appears in the same frame the mask hides the real header instead of a React commit later (removes the one-frame blink)
- Match the overlay's vertical box to the real header rows (py-1 instead of a centered h-7) so the identity does not shift a few pixels on the sticky handoff
