  <!-- VastuIQ Content Pages — genuinely standalone static files only.
       Guides, FAQ, Reviews, About, and Contact were originally assumed
       to belong here too, but live view-source checks confirmed all
       five are actually WordPress+Elementor pages (Rank Math present,
       elementor-post-* stylesheets, WordPress generator meta tag) —
       they're already covered by RankMath's own auto-generated
       sitemap, so listing them here would just create duplicate
       entries for the same URLs.

       The Blog wrapper is the one confirmed exception: it fetches
       posts client-side via the WordPress REST API
       (wp-json/wp/v2/posts) rather than being rendered by WordPress
       itself, and its source has none of the WordPress/Elementor/
       Rank Math fingerprints the other five have. -->
