About "taxi" in BIP39
- "taxi" has 4 letters, but the first three, "tax", already identify it, because "ta" also begins 12 other words, among them table, tackle, tag and tail. Three letters are enough for only 604 of the 2048 words.
- "taxi" is unique only within the English list: it also begins taxista in the Portuguese list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
