Do not transform a scroll-driven section to reframe a Playwright screenshot

Trying to bring off-viewport content into a screenshot of a scroll-snapped, vh-sized scene: (1) enlarging the viewport rescales every vh-based element, so the thing you wanted moves with it; (2) window.scrollBy after scrollIntoView can snap to the next section entirely; (3) setting transform on the section element itself breaks its sticky/scroll-driven layout and the whole section vanishes. What is safe: translate only the inner content container (the element wrapping the list rows), or keep the original viewport and composite pieces offline with PIL. Check the result before trusting the screenshot.
