  <!--
    /deals is deliberately absent. DealsIndex sets noindex whenever no sale is
    running (noSaleRunning), and there are currently ZERO discounted listings in
    the catalogue — effective_price < price matches nothing — so the page renders
    "No sale running right now". Submitting a noindex URL is a Search Console
    error. Re-add this entry when real discounted inventory exists; the nav,
    footer, catalogue and stats links already appear and disappear on their own
    via useHasDiscountedInventory.
