Why Hyvä Menus Need Child Clarity

Large Hyvä catalogs can bury child categories behind weak menu patterns:

• Hidden children — shoppers never see mid-tree categories
• Mobile friction — nested menus hard to tap
• Custom theme drift — one-off menu hacks per client
• Performance fear — heavy mega-menus hurt CWV
