Description

GOAL: Fix page 20 of slides/v2-review/BoG_2026_review.pdf where the slide-15 closer (text-only, "Concerted evolution of human subtelomeres — what we saw, predicted, and recovered") renders unreadably across the full 13.33in widescreen page. The "tabular" structure (Method | Empirical | Mechanism | Proof | Biology | Thesis label-content pairs) sprawls across 100+ character lines.

LEAD-AUTHOR FEEDBACK (verbatim):

"table in page 20 is... very rough. needs to be rendered way small at least? or over multiple pages."

INPUT: slides/v2-review/_typst/review_deck.typ — the typst source from upstream task render-bog-annotated. Find the slide-15 closer rendering (likely a text-only-page(...) or full-page block for slide 15 / "Concerted evolution thesis closer").

OPTIONS — pick whichever produces the cleanest result: (A) Render the label/content pairs as a proper typst #table with a narrower text column (~50-60 chars / line ≈ 5-6in width centered). Smaller font (10-11pt). Gridlines OK or omit. (B) Split the closer content across 2 pages: page 20a = title + the 6 label-content pairs as a vertical list with ~7in centered column; page 20b = the synthesis sentence + thesis pull-quote. Same 16:9 page size each. (C) Use a 2-column body layout for the closer (typst #columns(2) directive) so the dense list flows naturally and stays readable.

Recommended: (B) split across 2 pages — clean visual separation between "what we did" inventory and the thesis statement. Or (C) if (B) feels overstuffed.

PIPELINE:

  1. Read the current closer rendering in review_deck.typ.
  2. Refactor per option above.
  3. Recompile: typst compile slides/v2-review/_typst/review_deck.typ slides/v2-review/BoG_2026_review.pdf 2>&1 | tee slides/v2-review/_typst/render.log
  4. Re-extract per-page PNGs: pdftoppm -r 100 slides/v2-review/BoG_2026_review.pdf slides/v2-review/_typst/page → overwrite the existing page-NN.png files.
  5. Verify:
    • file slides/v2-review/BoG_2026_review.pdf -> 'PDF document'
    • Page count is 20 or 21 (was 20; +1 if you split the closer across 2 pages)
    • Page dimensions still 16:9 (13.33×7.5 or whatever 16:9 the original used)
    • Open the new page-20.png (and page-21.png if added) — visually confirm the closer content fits readably (lines ≤ ~70 chars, font ≥ 10pt).
  6. Single commit: 'fix: BoG review deck closer slide layout (page 20 was unreadable)'.

ACCEPTANCE:

  • slides/v2-review/BoG_2026_review.pdf rebuilt; closer content rendered legibly (no lines >100 chars across full page width); per-page screenshots refreshed; wg artifact records the new PDF.
  • If verification fails, fix and recompile until it passes — do NOT commit a still-broken closer.

DO NOT:

  • Touch any page OTHER than the closer (page 20). Other pages render fine per Erik's review.
  • Change page aspect ratio (must remain 16:9).
  • Modify slide_NN_*.md or any figure asset (read-only).
  • Touch files outside slides/v2-review/.
