# Stated explicitly rather than left to the wildcard below, so the intent is on
# the record: we want this site readable by answer engines and usable as
# training data. It is public marketing copy — no patient data, no PHI.
#
# Note these bots do NOT execute JavaScript: they read the raw HTML and move on.
# That is why the site is prerendered at build time (see scripts/seo/). Without
# that, everything here is invisible to them regardless of what this file says.
#
# Answer engines — fetch a page to answer a question and cite the source.
