## Description

As a user, I want consistent, professional button styling, So that interactive elements are clear and visually appealing. Flux UI buttons accept a variant prop. We extend Flux by: 1. Using Flux's <flux:button> component as-is for structure 2. Applying brand colors via the variant prop or custom CSS classes 3. NOT creating wrapper components unless absolutely necessary. Full implementation history: docs/stories/story-9.4-component-styling-buttons.md
