Image Rendering Speed — Production Validation

This document validates the Phase A/B/C image pipeline.

Hero image (should be eager + fetchpriority=high)

The first raster image should render with <picture> (AVIF + WebP sources), an LQIP placeholder, eager loading, fetchpriority=high, and explicit width/height attrs.

Second image (should be lazy)

Subsequent images should be loading="lazy" but still wrapped in <picture> with variants.
