About "torch" in BIP39
- "torch" has 5 letters, but the first four, "torc", already identify it, because "tor" also begins tornado and tortoise.
- "torc" is unique only within the English list: it also begins torche in the French list and torcido in the Portuguese list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
