Rapid pointer changes repeatedly restarted inherited color transitions in both presentation menu levels. Disable transitions on these rows while preserving focus and submenu behavior. Previous coverage checked open state only; the browser regression now compares next-frame highlight colors against the theme and fails with the old transition restored. Also verify header timeline hide/restore after expansion at 320, 375, 1024 and 1440 pixels. Validation: lint, typecheck, 1178 unit tests, five focused browser cases and production build passed.
