Diagnostics confirmed the "white bar" the user has been describing is
not a separate element — it's ``[data-testid=stApp]``'s solid white
background (``rgb(255,255,255)``, viewport-locked) showing through the
gap between where page content ends and where the fixed Help/Close
footer overlay begins. ``stApp`` stays put while content scrolls
inside it, which is why the bar "doesn't change when scrolling".
The gap exists because ``render_sticky_footer`` overrides the block
container's ``padding-bottom`` to ``3rem`` (48px) to reserve clear
room for the fixed footer. The footer is only ~32-33px tall (min-
height 32px + 0.25rem top/bottom padding), so ~16px of that reserve
was pure visible white space sitting above the buttons.
Reduce ``padding-bottom`` to ``2rem`` (~32px) — just enough to
prevent content from rendering under the footer overlay, no more.
Eliminates the visible gap without exposing text to clipping.
Also remove the diagnostic banner + click-to-inspect iframe from
the home page now that the bar is identified.
