ALIGNMENT FIX
GeneratePress sets `.aligncenter { display: block }`
which breaks inline-flex buttons.
This wrapper approach restores center alignment
without fighting GP's block-level rule.
Usage in WordPress:

LINK COLOR CONFLICT FIX
GP's winning rule is:
.inside-article a { color: var(--accent) }
Specificity: 1 class + 1 element = (0,1,1)
We beat it by using: .inside-article a.b.{variant}
Specificity: 1 class + 1 class + 1 class + 1 element = (0,3,1)
No !important wars needed — pure specificity win.
All four GP contexts covered for safety.
