A card that rises six pixels on hover and settles two down on press.

Transform and box-shadow move together on the same 200ms curve, so the lift and the shadow that explains it never separate — which is the detail that makes a hovered card read as raised rather than merely moved. The active state drops to two pixels rather than returning to zero, so a press feels like resistance rather than a cancel. Under reduced motion the transform is dropped entirely and only the shadow transitions, which keeps the affordance without the movement.
