 * Counts candidate hardcoded user-facing strings in the web UI.
 *
 * Two jobs. It sizes the localization work (docs/localization.md quotes its output), and once an area
 * reaches zero it becomes the guard that stops the debt coming back — see ZEROED below.
 *
 * It is a heuristic and it is deliberately a FLOOR. It cannot see multi-line JSX text, ternaries
 * inside JSX, strings passed down as props, or anything a plugin renders. A falling number means
 * progress; a zero means "nothing this scanner can see", not "nothing left".
 *
 *   bun scripts/i18n/scan-hardcoded.ts            # summary by area

 *   bun scripts/i18n/scan-hardcoded.ts --check    # non-zero exit if a zeroed area regressed
