⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Fix the broken TOC anchor for “Why Wisp”.

The link target still points to #why-openwispr, but the heading is now ## Why Wisp (fragment #why-wisp), so the contents link is broken.

references an incorrect anchor fragment. Change the link destination from the
old fragment `#why-openwispr` to the correct fragment `#why-wisp` to match the
actual heading "## Why Wisp" in the document. This will ensure the TOC link
properly navigates to the correct section.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Update landing-site download model to match the Wisp artifact naming.

The CTA copy was rebranded, but the runtime download builder (site/assets/app.js, Lines 153-207) still emits OpenWispr_... filenames and a fallback label of “Download OpenWispr”. That creates a cross-file branding/link contract mismatch and can break fallback downloads if release assets are now Wisp-prefixed.

Suggested fix (cross-file)

In `@site/index.html` around lines 218 - 221, The landing page HTML has been
rebranded to use "Wisp" terminology, but the runtime download builder in
site/assets/app.js (lines 153-207) still references "OpenWispr" in the filename
patterns it generates and in the fallback download label. Update the download
builder logic to emit "Wisp_..." prefixed filenames instead of "OpenWispr_..."
filenames and change the fallback label text from "Download OpenWispr" to
"Download Wisp" to maintain consistent branding across the landing page and the
download link generation logic.
