The front-page/blog listings rendered featured images as 150x150
centre-cropped squares stacked above the text. The theme actually
renders them at 210x150 cropped from the left-top corner
(set_post_thumbnail_size), floated left with a border so the excerpt
wraps beside them -- the CSS for that (#container .attachment-thumbnail)
was already ported, the class just was never applied.
The left-top anchor matters: every featured image is a 930x354 slide
banner whose subject sits in the left portion, so a centre crop cut the
subject out entirely.
Also restores the "Read the Rest..." link (the theme's excerpt_more
filter) and corrects excerpt length -- the theme uses 60 words on the
front page and 30 in the slideshow; the export was baking WordPress's
default 55 for both.

Static brochure/marketing site: 55 pages, 5 posts, 82 attachments, and
the 7-item nav, exported from the wordpress_vicidial DB via
scripts/export-wp.mjs (re-runnable). Layout/styles ported from the
small-business WP theme; homepage slideshow rebuilt as a Splide client
island pulling the latest 5 posts at build time, replacing the old
BJQS jQuery plugin.
