About "destroy" in BIP39
- "destroy" has 7 letters, but the first four, "dest", already identify it, because "des" also begins describe, desert, design, desk and despair.
- "dest" is unique only within the English list: it also begins destrier in the French list, destino in the Spanish list and destaque in the Portuguese list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
