docs(blog): humanize voice and fold character asides into prose
Two voice changes applied across all 22 posts in the series.
First, a sound-like-a-person pass: a series-wide audit found five
recurring AI-shaped tells clustered at section seams — balanced
"not X, it's Y" antitheses, restate-the-point closers, recap
tricolons, honesty-signaling, and meta-narration. Flattened the
constructed instances while keeping the lived-in, opinionated spine.
Second, removed the Cadey/Mara blockquote asides (70 of them) and
folded each into the surrounding first-person narrative. Technical
tangents (file:line anchors, symbol names, the C-vs-Rust details)
and reaction beats now read as continuous prose. Re-checked the
no-successive-same-opening-letter rule after both passes.
