Research direction

The issue identifies React Native Paper's Card components and version 5.13.3; reproduce the problem in a project with nested Card child views, then trace the TypeScript prop definitions for Card, Card.Title, and Card.Content. Done means those components no longer require an explicit children prop when child views are present, with the reported behavior verified.
