0.13.15 — search results you can actually see

The report came in the way the best reports do: I pressed search and never noticed anything appear. The results were on the page — all three, each with its paragraph. But they were appended below the field with no motion at all, and the page did not move, so on a phone, where the field sits halfway down the screen, the whole list landed below the fold. The button looked broken.

Since 0.13.15 two things happen once the answer arrives. The page scrolls to the field, so the question and the first result stand together, with `scroll-mt-24` keeping clear of the header bar — without it the bar would cover the very field being scrolled to. The results then slide in one by one, seventy milliseconds apart, a short rise out of transparency. The motion lasts three tenths of a second, because its job is to say look here, not to entertain.

The empty-result message arrives exactly the same way. No answer is also an answer, and it needs to be noticed too — otherwise silence after a button press means both nothing was found and nothing happened.

When the system reports reduced motion, only the scroll remains, performed as a jump. An element that slides and fades is precisely what that setting exists to prevent — but hiding the result off-screen is not accessibility either, just a different failure.
