About "hazard" in BIP39
- "hazard" has 6 letters, but the first three, "haz", already identify it, because "ha" also begins 14 other words, among them habit, hair, half and hammer. Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- "haza" is unique only within the English list: it also begins hazaña in the Spanish list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
