About "champion" in BIP39
- "champion" has 8 letters, but the first four, "cham", already identify it, because "cha" also begins 8 other words, among them chair, chalk, change and chaos.
- "cham" is unique only within the English list: it also begins chambre in the French list, champú in the Spanish list and chamado in the Portuguese list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
