 /**
  * BrandSlot — Phase 17 seam component for the login page brand area.
  *
- * Phase 19 ships a minimal shippable placeholder: a 48px circle with "FS"
+ * Phase 19 shipped a minimal shippable placeholder: a 48px circle with "FS"
  * initials, the app name "FamilySync", and the tagline "Family calendar & lists".
  *
- * Phase 17 replaces the internals of this component (swap the placeholder div for
- * an <img> with a real logo) without touching LoginPage's layout. This isolates
- * the branding seam — see 19-UI-SPEC.md §Brand Slot section.
+ * Phase 17 replaces the placeholder div with a decorative logo <img> — the approved
+ * FamilySync family-house SVG. LoginPage layout is untouched (seam contract honored;
+ * see 19-UI-SPEC.md §Brand Slot section).
  *
- * CSS custom properties used (all set in tokens.css with placeholder defaults;
- * Phase 17 overrides these values):
- *   --brand-logo-bg           — logo circle background (default: var(--color-member-0))
- *   --brand-logo-text         — initials color (default: #ffffff)
- *   --brand-logo-size         — circle diameter (default: 48px)
- *   --brand-logo-border-radius — circle shape (default: 50%)
+ * CSS custom properties used (all set in tokens.css):
+ *   --brand-logo-size         — image size (default: 48px)
+ *   --brand-logo-border-radius — image border-radius (0 — SVG draws its own shape)
  *
  * Accessibility:
  *   <h1> contains the app name — screen readers read "FamilySync" as the page title.
- *   The logo circle is aria-hidden (the text is the accessible label).
- *   No <img> today → no broken image ref → no layout shift when Phase 17 replaces it.
+ *   The logo image is decorative (alt="", aria-hidden="true").
  *
  * Security: all copy is plain-text JSX children — no dangerouslySetInnerHTML (T-05-24).
