   - For carousel items, `.next`, `.prev`, `.left`, and `.right` are now `.carousel-item-next`, `.carousel-item-prev`, `.carousel-item-left`, and `.carousel-item-right`.
   - `.item` is also now `.carousel-item`.
-  - For prev/next controls, `.right` and `.left` modifiers are now `.carousel-control-left` and `.carousel-control-left`.
+  - For prev/next controls, `.carousel-control.right` and `.carousel-control.left` are now `.carousel-control-left` and `.carousel-control-left`, meaning they no longer require a specific base class.
 - Removed all responsive styling, deferring to utilities (e.g., showing captions on certain viewports) and custom styles as needed.
 - Removed image overrides for images in carousel items, deferring to utilities.
 - Tweaked the Carousel example to include the new markup and styles.
