How the list is sorted
Words come from the five-letter words in the ENABLE list. Words that use the most common letters in the remaining list come first, because guessing them rules out the most possibilities. Words with repeated letters come later.
Telling the finder where each yellow letter appeared removes words with the letter in that spot, which shortens the list quickly. Clear resets everything for the next day's puzzle.
