A kicker above every heading
============================

Rule · bucket: hybrid · severity: warning · detector: heading-kicker · since: v0.17.0
Section: Things to avoid
Group: Generic-AI aesthetic

Forbidden:
  A small uppercase, letter-spaced line over each section heading: "FEATURES" over "What you get", "HOW IT WORKS" over "Three steps to launch"

Instead:
  One heading that says it. If the kicker repeats the heading, delete it; if it adds something, work those words into the heading or the line under it.

A kicker is one more line to read before the one that matters, and on every section it stops marking anything. It survives from print, where a section label helped a reader flip to a page. On a screen the heading is already the label.
