Metadata past its budget
========================

Forbidden:
  A 78-character title, a 210-character description, both eyeballed

Instead:
  Title ≤ 60 characters, description ≤ 155, measured. Past the budget the end is cut, and the cut lands mid-sentence.

The budget is not a style preference; it is the width of the box someone else renders. Write the important half first, so a cut costs the least.
