B first and E third covers 56 words, and three different letters take a real share of the box between them.
R leads at about thirty nine percent, L at twenty seven and a second E at twenty five. Those three cover almost the whole group.
Only five percent goes anywhere else, so in practice you are choosing between three branches rather than working through a long tail.
BREAK and BREAD share four letters and split only at the end. BLEND and BLESS have nothing in common past the BLE.
The double E branch behaves differently again, since BEERS and BEECH put the repeat right at the front rather than saving it for later in the word.
BREAK is the strongest single opener, since R leads and its A and K test letters the other two branches rarely use.
If it misses entirely, BLEND covers the second branch and introduces four fresh letters at once.
They share B, R, E and A, differing only in the last box. That makes them efficient rather than risky, since landing one resolves the other.
No. BELOW puts E in the second box and L in the third. The E needs to sit one place later, which is what separates BLESS from BELOW here.
Both double the E across the second and third boxes rather than running a consonant blend. It is a smaller shape but a distinctive one.
