  Sitemap — ia-scorecard.com

  Contains ONLY pages that are publicly reachable, contentful, and
  self-canonical. Every URL here must also appear in PUBLIC_CANONICAL_PATHS
  (src/lib/canonical.ts): a page whose <link rel="canonical"> points somewhere
  else is a page Google drops from the index, which would make listing it here
  pointless. tests/features/seo/seo-files.test.ts asserts the two stay in sync and
  that nothing robots.txt disallows leaks in.

  Trailing slashes match the form the site links internally (footer, CTAs) and
  the form the canonical tags emit.

  Deliberately NOT listed:
  - /assessment/ — crawlable (robots.txt allows it) but excluded here: it is the
    interactive funnel entry, not a content page, and a thin app screen in the
    index competes with the landing page that markets it.
  - every path under robots.txt's Disallow list — gated or tokenized surfaces.

  No last-modified elements: the build has no honest per-page modification date
  to publish, and a fabricated or build-stamped date on unchanged pages trains
  crawlers to ignore the field. Add real dates if a CMS ever backs these pages.
  (The element name is spelled out only in the test, not here — seo-files.test.ts
  greps this file verbatim to assert none are present.)
