About "link" in BIP39
- "link" has 4 letters, but the first three, "lin", already identify it, because "li" also begins 16 other words, among them liar, liberty, library and license. Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- "link" is unique only within the English list: it also begins linka in the Czech list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
