docs(why-ocp): reorder bullets + soften alignment framing + visceral hooks

The "Why OCP?" section previously led with technical/governance bullets
(SSE heartbeat, alignment, models.json) and buried the most relatable
selling points (LAN multi-user keys, ocp-connect IDE auto-config, cache).
First-time readers stopped reading before reaching the bullets that would
have sold them on the project.

Changes (README.md only, line 19-26):

1. Reorder: human-relatable benefits first, governance discipline last.
   New order: LAN multi-user → ocp-connect → cache → quota → SSE heartbeat
   → alignment → models.json. Quota is split out from the old combined
   "quota + cache" bullet so each gets its own one-liner.

2. Soften the alignment bullet's framing. The previous prose flagged
   "Other Claude proxies have shipped exactly that" and was deleted —
   no need to call out competitors. Replaced with a measured "LLM-assisted
   code drifts easily — it's tempting to invent plausible-looking endpoints
   that cli.js doesn't actually use" plus a deliberately understated
   payoff: "your setup keeps working when cli.js ships its next minor."

3. Add visceral hooks where bullets benefit from them:
   - SSE heartbeat: "If you've ever watched your IDE die at the 60s idle
     mark during a long Claude tool-use pause — that's nginx/Cloudflare
     default behavior" (frames the problem in user-felt terms before
     describing the fix).
   - Per-key quota: concrete example "set a kid's iPad to 20/day, a
     partner's laptop to 100/week" (replaces abstract "limits per key").

4. Cache bullet now explicitly states the per-key isolation guarantee:
   "cross-user pollution is impossible by hash construction, not by
   application logic" — this addresses the most common pre-adoption
   concern (and reflects the v3.13.0 D1 design).

5. Total length compressed ~20% despite added context — old bullets had
   redundant "what" descriptions; new bullets lead with the "what for".

Doc-only change. server.mjs not touched. ALIGNMENT.md Rule 5 (cli.js
citation requirement) does not apply. Same pattern as #68, #69.

+There are several Claude proxy projects. OCP picks a specific lane: **align tightly with what `cli.js` actually does, observe + multiplex what's already there, don't extend the protocol.** What you get:
 
-- **SSE heartbeat on streaming** ([v3.12.0](https://github.com/dtzp555-max/ocp/releases/tag/v3.12.0), opt-in via `CLAUDE_HEARTBEAT_INTERVAL`). Long Claude reasoning or tool-use pauses can sit silent for minutes; downstream load balancers and reverse proxies often kill the connection at 60s idle. OCP emits an SSE comment frame during silent windows so the connection stays alive without polluting the response. ([PR #49](https://github.com/dtzp555-max/ocp/pull/49))
+- **LAN multi-user keys** (v3.7.0) — share one Claude Pro/Max subscription with family, friends, or your own devices. Each user gets a per-key API token (no OAuth session leak), with independent usage tracking and one-line revocation.
-- **Alignment constitution + CI guardrail.** [`ALIGNMENT.md`](./ALIGNMENT.md) is the binding spec: every endpoint OCP exposes must correspond to something `cli.js` actually does, with a line-number citation. The [`alignment.yml`](./.github/workflows/alignment.yml) workflow auto-blocks PRs that introduce known-hallucinated tokens (`api/oauth/usage`, `api/usage`, etc). Hard to drift, even with LLM-assisted contributions.
+- **`ocp-connect` one-shot IDE setup** — one command on the client machine detects and configures Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, Continue.dev, OpenCode, and OpenClaw. No pasting `OPENAI_BASE_URL` six times.
-- **`models.json` single source of truth** (v3.11.0). Adding a model is one file edit; both `/v1/models` and the OpenClaw bootstrap derive from it. No more drift between server and installer. ([PR #30](https://github.com/dtzp555-max/ocp/pull/30))
+- **Response cache with per-key isolation + singleflight** (v3.13.0). Optional SHA-256 prompt cache, isolated per API key (cross-user pollution is impossible by hash construction, not by application logic), with stampede protection on concurrent identical prompts. Off by default. ([PR #65](https://github.com/dtzp555-max/ocp/pull/65), [PR #66](https://github.com/dtzp555-max/ocp/pull/66))
-- **Multi anonymous-key distribution** (v3.7.0). Share one OCP instance with friends/family/devices without exposing your OAuth session — each gets a per-user key, with usage tracking and revocation.
+- **Per-key request quotas** (v3.8.0). Daily / weekly / monthly limits per key — set a kid's iPad to 20/day, a partner's laptop to 100/week. ([PR #18](https://github.com/dtzp555-max/ocp/pull/18))
-- **Per-key quota + response cache** (v3.8.0). Daily/weekly/monthly request limits per key. Optional SHA-256 prompt cache for development loops. ([PR #18](https://github.com/dtzp555-max/ocp/pull/18))
+- **SSE heartbeat for long reasoning** ([v3.12.0](https://github.com/dtzp555-max/ocp/releases/tag/v3.12.0), opt-in).

-- **`ocp-connect` IDE auto-config.** Detects Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, Continue.dev, opencode, and OpenClaw on the client machine and configures them in one command.
+- **`cli.js` alignment + CI guardrail.** LLM-assisted code drifts easily — it's tempting to invent plausible-looking endpoints that `cli.js` doesn't actually use. [`ALIGNMENT.md`](./ALIGNMENT.md) is binding: every endpoint OCP exposes must cite a `cli.js` line. The [`alignment.yml`](./.github/workflows/alignment.yml) CI workflow blocks PRs that introduce known-hallucinated tokens. The payoff is boring: your setup keeps working when `cli.js` ships its next minor.

+## Support OCP
+
+OCP has been **open source from day one** — not a freemium tool, not a commercial product turned open, just open. It will stay that way forever. No paid tiers, no premium features, no "Pro" version locked behind a paywall.
+
+I built it because my family and I needed it. We use OCP every day across our own machines and IDEs — keeping one Claude Pro/Max subscription powering everything, saving the per-token API cost we'd otherwise pay. It's been quietly heartwarming to hear from users online who say OCP has saved them money the same way it saves ours. That's the whole point.
+
+Behind every version are hundreds of hours that don't show up in commits: building it from scratch, adding new features as the Claude Code ecosystem evolves, debugging across Mac / Windows / Linux machines, validating against half a dozen IDEs (Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, OpenCode, Aider, Continue.dev, OpenClaw), tracking down `cli.js` drift, OAuth refresh edge cases, SSE streaming quirks, concurrency leaks, and the occasional incident that turns into a multi-day investigation (the [2026-04-11 alignment drift](./docs/adr/0002-alignment-constitution.md), the [v3.11.1 concurrency leak](./CHANGELOG.md), the v3.12 SSE replay regression).
+
+**The commitment**: this project will keep being updated, keep getting new features, and will stay open source as long as I'm able to maintain it.
+
+**Please try it.** If something breaks or could be better, [open an issue](https://github.com/dtzp555-max/ocp/issues) — feedback is genuinely what keeps the project moving.
+
+And if OCP saves you (or your team, or your family) real money and you'd like to chip in toward the next debugging session:
