Enhanced bulletproof rhythm system that prevents margin collapse
and ensures consistent vertical spacing throughout the document. Based on the
1rlh (relative line height) rhythm unit for mathematical precision.
Applied globally to root for cascade throughout the page.
Supports responsive rhythm adjustments and granular control per element.
