About "segment" in BIP39
- "segment" has 7 letters, but the first three, "seg", already identify it, because "se" also begins 22 other words, among them sea, search, season and seat. Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- "segm" is unique only within the English list: it also begins segmento in the Portuguese list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
