About "atom" in BIP39
- "atom" has 4 letters, but the first three, "ato", already identify it, because "at" also begins athlete, attack, attend, attitude and attract. Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- "atom" is unique only within the English list: it also begins atome in the French list and atomico in the Italian list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
