Boxed like the player, and for the same reason: this is one thing at a time,
and a card floating in the middle of an empty page reads as an aside rather
than as work. The deck takes the window, the bar saying what you are studying
and how far in is fixed at the top, the card fills what is left and scrolls
inside its own frame, and the controls are fixed at the foot.
The foot is the player's three-part bar, adapted to what a deck actually has:
the way back to the decks at the left, Prev / Show answer or the verdict /
Next in the middle, the keyboard shortcuts at the right. No Exit session — a
deck has no block to hand in — and no menu, because the controls that change
the run (All, Review, Shuffle, Reset) are at the top where they belong.
The navbar's 32px bottom margin is zeroed while a deck is open, as it is for
the player: the shell is measured against the window minus the header, and
that margin was 32px the arithmetic did not know about — exactly how far off
the bottom of the screen the verdict bar had ended up.
Separately: no "AI draft" and no "New article" on the reading page. Reading is
where an article is read, by everyone including the people who write them.
Writing one starts in Editorial, which is the queue of what still needs a
person, and whose rows already open the editor rather than the reader — so an
administrator reading the library and an administrator working through it are
two different doors, which is the point.
