104cac5's override sits at the same specificity as Vuetify's default
(`.v-tooltip > .v-overlay__content` on both sides). The fix relied on
source order — app.css imported after vuetify/styles in main.js — but
Vite's production bundler reorders node_modules CSS into the final
stylesheet unpredictably, so source order isn't a reliable winner.
!important on the two contrast properties (background + color) forces
the slate-on-parchment pair regardless of stylesheet load order. The
cosmetic border + shadow don't need it (Vuetify doesn't set them, so
nothing's competing).
Operator re-flagged 2026-05-29: tooltips still rendered light-on-light
on the deployed :latest after PR #33 — 104cac5 was in the bundle but
not winning. Also updated the file header so the source-order claim
isn't carried forward as gospel.

Operator-flagged 2026-05-28: tooltips (e.g. the action buttons in
Subscriptions → Subscriptions) render near-white-on-near-white,
unreadable.
Cause: Vuetify's default v-tooltip pairs `on-surface-variant` text with
an `surface-variant` background. FC's theme deliberately maps
`on-surface-variant` to vellum (#C2BFB4 — a light cream, the correct
muted-text token for captions/hints on the dark page) but never defines
`surface-variant`, so Vuetify auto-generates a light-ish tooltip
background. Light text on light bg.
Fix is tooltip-specific so it doesn't disturb the (correctly light)
muted-text token elsewhere. New app-global stylesheet
frontend/src/styles/app.css, imported in main.js AFTER vuetify/styles
(equal-specificity rule wins by source order), overrides
`.v-tooltip > .v-overlay__content` to a dark elevated panel
(surface-bright = slate #2C313A) with high-contrast parchment text
(#E8E4D8) + a subtle border + shadow. Applies to every tooltip in the
app, so the fix is consistent rather than per-component.
