About "art" in BIP39
- All three letters of "art" also begin longer words: artefact, artist and artwork. So "art" cannot be shortened, and a backup that keeps the first four letters of each word stores it as "art" but artefact as "arte".
- "art" appears in one of the 24 official English test vectors of BIP39: vector #9 (word 24 of 24). Every official vector passes the checksum checker, and How BIP39 works shows how the entropy turns into such words. As the last word of vector #9, its final 8 bits, 01100110, are the checksum of the 24-word phrase.
