Research direction

Start with the welcome screen's layout and WelcomeScreenScreenshotTest, using the font scale 2 snapshot named in the issue to locate the affected content. Make the feature list scroll while keeping the “Get started” button pinned at the bottom, then re-record the snapshot and check that all three descriptions are visible.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

At font scale 2 the welcome screen's feature list doesn't fit above the "Get started" button: the second item's description is cut off mid-line and the third item isn't visible at all. The content area doesn't scroll, so users with a large system font can't read it.

Seen in the new large font snapshot app.plugbrain.android.screenshots_WelcomeScreenScreenshotTest_welcomeScreenTest_fontscale2.png (added with #150).

Likely fix: make the content above the button scrollable (e.g. verticalScroll) while keeping the button pinned at the bottom, then re-record the snapshot.
