 ### Color overrides
 
-The three `\renewcommand*` lines in the preamble are required on lualatex+MiKTeX. Without them the firstname, lastname, and section headings render in black even though `\moderncvcolor{blue}` is set, which looks inconsistent with the rest of the blue accent scheme (links, bullet markers, contact icons). The override forces all three to use `color1` (moderncv's accent colour, which becomes blue under `\moderncvcolor{blue}`). Both names render bold; if you prefer the firstname in regular weight, change the firstnamestyle override from `\bfseries` to `\mdseries`. Don't drop the override - on most modern installs the defaults render visibly wrong.
+The `\renewcommand*` on `\namefont` and the three `\colorlet` lines in the preamble are required on lualatex+MiKTeX. Without them the name and section headings render in black even though `\moderncvcolor{blue}` is set, which looks inconsistent with the rest of the blue accent scheme (links, bullet markers, contact icons). The cause: `moderncvstylebanking.sty` defines the name colours with `\colorlet`, which *copies* the accent colour as it is before the scheme is applied, so the name colours are frozen to the pre-scheme value; re-assigning them with `\colorlet` after `\moderncvcolor{blue}` (as the preamble does) re-pins them to `color1`. `\namefont` is the shared hook every name-style macro routes through, so the block is version-agnostic - including moderncv 2.3.1 from Debian/Ubuntu apt, which has no `\firstnamestyle`/`\lastnamestyle` at all. Both names render bold; if you prefer regular weight, change `\bfseries` to `\mdseries` in the `\namefont` line (the weight now lives there, so it applies to the whole name). Don't drop the overrides - on most modern installs the defaults render visibly wrong.

+- **`main_example.tex` compiles on apt-packaged moderncv** (#242) - the banking template
+  set its name styling through `\firstnamestyle`/`\lastnamestyle`, which moderncv 2.3.1
+  (Debian/Ubuntu apt) does not have, so a fresh fork could not compile its own example CV
+  on that toolchain. Name styling now routes through `\namefont`, the hook every name-style
+  macro shares: a true no-op on moderncv 2.4+ (where head iii typesets via
+  `\firstnamestyle`/`\lastnamestyle` and never calls `\namefont`'s replacements), and the
+  only option on 2.3.1 where those macros do not exist. Two review follow-ups landed in the
+  same change: the `\hypersetup` comment now names the real clash mechanism
+  (`\RequirePackage[unicode]{hyperref}` on < 2.4; `\PassOptionsToPackage`, introduced in
+  2.4.0, is what removes the clash), and the metadata block sets `pdfpagemode=UseNone` - a
+  `FullScreen` value there would win over the class's own `\AtEndPreamble` default and make
+  every CV open in fullscreen presentation mode. `05-cv-templates.md`'s preamble copy stays
+  in lockstep (framework_version 1.4.0 -> 1.4.1). Verified on moderncv 2.5.1: exit 0,
+  exactly 2 pages, rendering unchanged.
