💡 What: Replaced hardcoded padding spaces with the ANSI 'Erase in Line' escape sequence (\033[K) after carriage returns.
🎯 Why: To prevent trailing text artifacts when dynamically updating terminal output (e.g., countdowns, score displays).
♿ Accessibility/UX: Provides a cleaner visual experience by dynamically clearing the remaining line contents rather than relying on an arbitrary number of padding spaces.

When using carriage return (`\r`) to overwrite lines in the terminal, relying on hardcoded spaces to pad out the previous text can leave artifacts if the new text is shorter.
This commit replaces the hardcoded spaces with the ANSI escape sequence `\033[K` (Erase in Line), ensuring a clean and artifact-free line overwrite.
