About "nasty" in BIP39
- "nasty" has 5 letters, but the first three, "nas", already identify it, because "na" also begins naive, name, napkin, narrow, nation and nature. Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- "nast" is unique only within the English list: it also begins nastrare in the Italian list and nastat in the Czech list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
