About "garbage" in BIP39
- "garbage" has 7 letters, but the first four, "garb", already identify it, because "gar" also begins garage, garden, garlic and garment.
- "garb" is unique only within the English list: it also begins garbo in the Italian list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
