Two month grids, one querySelector, and arrow keys that jumped to the wrong month

I write my date pickers by hand — no react-day-picker, no date-fns, no dayjs. Radix supplies popover positioning and focus management; the 42-cell month, the week offset and the month arithmetic are about forty lines of pure functions. That held fine for one grid. The moment I rendered two months side by side, the arrow keys started teleporting. Each grid draws six full weeks, so January's trailing cells and February's leading cells are the same fourteen days, and data-date existed twice in the DOM. querySelector returns the first match, so focus kept landing in the wrong grid. The fix is to render the adjacent-month days as inert blanks — but only when a second grid is on screen.
