Creation v4 — the UX pass: sentences instead of forms, words instead of jargon

Same locked 5 steps and capabilities underneath. What changes: every step opens already complete (template did the work) and reads as editable prose — you scan sentences and fix what's wrong, you never "fill out a form". Jargon is demoted to gray hints for pros.

Step 2 — "What's the goal?" · two human cards, not an objective enum

The old "apply to all + tabs" is still the machinery — it just reads as "one sentence for everyone + a card per audience, with a blue pill when one differs." The old Keep/Set/TPL tri-state is gone from the UI: values are simply there, template picks marked with a dot, and "reset to template" appears only after you change something.
Step 5 — "Check & launch" · plain-language review + a calm landing

Success state: "5 ads created ✓ — they're paused. Review them, then flip the campaign on." One switch, no scavenger hunt. Micro-interaction spec (from the polish skill): steps enter as 2-3 staggered chunks (~100ms), buttons scale(.96) on press, money in tabular-nums, edit-tokens have 40px hit areas, cards use layered shadows not borders, progress bar animates interruptibly.
