Redlines: We don't include redline comps because it's always more accurate to use developer tools to inspect the coded components, or a plugin such as the Prism Redline Tool.

Usage
Divider usage:
- Break up horizontal content that is not visually different enough to distinguish itself from neighboring content.
- Provide a rhythm while browsing vertical content.
- Add emphasis to specific tasks or information by tightly pairing dividers around small but important chunks of data.
Container usage:
- Use containers sparingly, because too many containers on a page causes excess noise.
- Use container color wisely so there aren't too many colored containers on one page.
- Avoid putting the entire page content in a container.
