  ListGem static sitemap.

  Covers stable, public top-level routes. Dynamic content (published
  lists, curator profiles) is enumerated separately in /sitemap-dynamic.xml
  (a Netlify function that queries the backend); robots.txt references
  both. Catalogued Things (/thing/:id) aren't enumerated in either today
  — SEO value depends on review/ranking density, deferred for a future
  iteration with a usage threshold filter.

  Priority + changefreq are advisory; modern search engines mostly use
  them as ordering hints, not authoritative directives.
