Research direction

Start in the Headline theme's responsive navigation and dropdown entry points; no specific file or test is named in the report. Reproduce the issue on tablet-sized screens with a wider site title, then trace the ellipsis button and dropdown positioning. Done means the dropdown remains fully onscreen for the reported title-length and screen-size combinations.
