  /* --- Protocols dropdown ------------------------------------------------
     The primary menu now carries one level of children (header.php passes
     depth 2). Only "Protocols" uses it: its six children are the six
     product_cat archives. Each child is tagged with a seq-cat-* class when
     the menu item is created, which is what colours the dot.
     Colours are hardcoded rather than tokenised because chrome.css — which
     dresses the calculator page — carries neither --mid nor the category
     tokens, and this block has to be byte-identical across all six
     stylesheets that render the nav.
     Below 768px .nav .links is display:none, so there is no hover surface
     on phones and nothing to do there.                                    */
