About "acid" in BIP39
- "acid" has 4 letters, but the first three, "aci", already identify it, because "ac" also begins 13 other words, among them access, accident, account and accuse. Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- "acid" is unique only within the English list: it also begins aciduler in the French list, acido in the Italian list and acidez in the Portuguese list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
