  Add a dedicated 'Why Kula?' or 'Key Differentiators' section to the README

  Why:

  COPY-PASTE FIX

  Copy

  Add a new section, perhaps titled `## ✨ Why Kula?` or `## 🚀 Key Differentiators`, immediately after the 'What It Does' section, detailing points like:
  
  ```
  ## ✨ Why Kula?
  
  Kula stands out as a monitoring solution due to its:
  
  *   **Zero Dependencies:** No external databases, message queues, or complex services required. Just a single binary.
  *   **Lightweight & Self-Contained:** Minimal resource footprint, perfect for VPS, embedded systems, or resource-constrained environments.
  *   **Real-time Insights:** Instant access to system metrics via a responsive Web UI dashboard and a terminal TUI.
  *   **Direct System Access:** Collects comprehensive metrics directly from `/proc` and `/sys` for accuracy and efficiency.
  *   **Built-in Storage:** Utilizes an optimized tiered ring-buffer storage engine, eliminating the need for external time-series databases.

  Add a brief comparison or 'alternatives' section to the README

  Why:

  COPY-PASTE FIX

  Copy

  Add a section like `## 🆚 Kula vs. Alternatives` or `## 💡 When to Choose Kula`, outlining its positioning:
  
  ```
  ## 💡 When to Choose Kula
  
  Kula is ideal for users who need a simple, self-contained monitoring solution without the overhead of larger systems. While tools like Netdata offer extensive features and Prometheus provides powerful metric collection with a separate Grafana dashboard, Kula focuses on a single-binary, zero-dependency approach for straightforward, real-time Linux server oversight. Choose Kula when you prioritize ease of deployment, minimal resource usage, and an all-in-one monitoring experience.
