  78. In consecutive order, individual placeholders are scaled up when a viewport's threshold is reached.
  79. For example: a fullwidth one-fourth will be promoted to a one-half when the viewport between 480 and
  80. 719 pixels is triggered.
  81.  
  82. "exceptional" rows are rows which contain heterogeneous placeholders. For example: a one-fourth paired
  83. with a one-half and another one-fourth needs to scale at different viewports than a one-fourth paired with
  84. three other one-fourths. This is necessary for individual rows to be completely filled up. */
