Inactive Lines

Gallery / Feature Showcase

Grey out optional routes to highlight what actually ran. The two optional subworkflows carry the `inactive` fifth field on their `%%metro line:` directive, so they (and the stations, labels, and legend swatches only they touch) render muted while the default STAR path stays full colour. Override per-render with `--inactive-lines` (an empty value forces every line active).
