Let the Grain Settle First, Then the Image Can Breathe
It's not a full repaint — it's smoothing the grain out gradually, letting the blur spread with the same breathing rhythm.
✍️ Background blur isn't just a random smear — it's a bokeh gradient calculated against an f2.4 aperture value. The number gets set before the mood gets discussed, and only once the grain is cleared can the blur actually hold up.
