About "cave" in BIP39
- "cave" has 4 letters, but the first three, "cav", already identify it, because "ca" also begins 41 other words, among them cabbage, cabin, cable and cactus. Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- "cave" is unique only within the English list: it also begins caverne in the French list and caverna in the Portuguese list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
