The controller body/face were opaque, so the synthwave backdrop only peeked
out above/below the controller. Make the DARK palette surfaces translucent
(body/face/inlay) and drop the opaque shadow platform + the gradient's forced
0.95 alpha, so the backdrop reads through the controller as glass. CLASSIC
palette stays solid.
