About "carpet" in BIP39
- "carpet" has 6 letters, but the first four, "carp", already identify it, because "car" also begins car, carbon, card, cargo, carry and cart.
- Its first letters also spell another BIP39 word, car. Write "carpet" out in full: cut short, it turns into a different valid word.
- "carp" is unique only within the English list: it also begins carpeta in the Spanish list and carpete in the Portuguese list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
