+// WCAG 2.2 audit (2026-07-24, REDUCED MOTION finding) - this chevron's rotate transition used to
+// be a plain inline `style={{ transition: "all 0.25s 0s" }}`, which - unlike every other animated
+// surface in the codebase (PagePreview.tsx's loading sweep, printingTags/cardPanel.tsx,
+// WhatsThatWords.tsx, all of which carry an explicit `@media (prefers-reduced-motion: reduce)`
+// override) - never checked `prefers-reduced-motion` at all. A plain inline style can't express a
+// media query, so the transition is lifted into this tiny styled component instead (same
+// className/DOM shape, only the `style` prop's `transition` moves here) - the disclosure still
+// works identically for a reduced-motion user, it just snaps instead of animating over 0.25s,
+// matching this codebase's own established pattern for every other transition/animation.
