review density: Cody gate — flex-shrink:0 on .revdens + .live so the toolbar slider doesn't float/squish between the flex:1 search and margin-auto indicator at 981-1100px; cap density at 5 (6-col dropped video thumbs to ~170px, too small for 16/9); aria-valuetext announces 'N columns' to screen readers
