> Having worked for two corporations that have fairly extensive (and
stringent) visual identity and branding guidelines (colors, typeface,
formatting, etc.), I've learned that there are ways to make an obvious
change between two things while still making them look like they go
together. At a minimum, unless we do a complete overhaul of our
documentation system, the navigation sidebar is going to be an obvious
indication that we've gone to another system. There are other things, such
as header bars (as we have), that by their presence will indicate a
different system, but the basic design can be similar or the same.

That being said, you may be right, and perhaps we need some additional
distinction between the two. *But,* I do feel like the stylesheet on the
documentation needs to be reviewed and updated, regardless.
