About "tornado" in BIP39
- "tornado" has 7 letters, but the first four, "torn", already identify it, because "tor" also begins torch and tortoise.
- "torn" is unique only within the English list: it also begins tornade in the French list, torneo in the Spanish list, tornare in the Italian list and torneio in the Portuguese list, so a four-letter backup should say which list it uses.
