And stewpid WordleBot: It said CABIN would have been more “efficient” than BASIN. Really? How?

I don’t use wordlebot so not sure how that works, but with only one letter difference in the two words it seems like your choice would be more efficient since it’s a higher frequency letter.
Given the answer BASIC would have been even more “efficient” LOL.
I know, right? I mostly read WordleBot for the chuckles.
If I were to assign a meaning to one word being ‘more efficient’ than another in a given context, it would mean that it would eliminate more of the remaining possibilities than the other, regardless of the actual solution.
For instance, yesterday after my opening word, I my fairly exhaustive search found 11 possibilities for the solution. My second word was guaranteed to eliminate 8 or more of them. A second word that might have eliminated fewer than 8, depending on the solution, would have been less efficient.
Wrong type of facia and actually a typo by me both in the game and on this board, as I was thinking fascia when I mistyped facia. And if you can make any sense out of that, my hat’s off to you.
SALSA → At least I got something for only knocking out three letters. Plus, I know A is not repeated. That’s something…
RATED → Didn’t get much there. I though of an off-the-wall possibility…
WACKY → which at least got me the C, though I’m not sure where it goes. So while running through some possibilities I gave this a shot…
BANCO → Which was little help, other than to narrow down the possibilities for the next guess. I thought about the C on the end, and since PANIC didn’t work I tried…

And I didn’t even see CABIN for a fourth guess.

MANOR
MAMBA
MAGIC
I saw MAGIC and MAMBA at the same time and thought that the double letters were more likely.
I tried MAORI for my 2nd guess but was told that it wasn’t on the list. I wonder why?
According to WordleBot, 3.8 was the NY Times average, so I don’t feel too bad about the 4
Because it was a proper noun, perhaps?

CANID
MAGIC
Happy to get this in 3. I wasn’t sure if Canid would be a valid word - it’s commonly used, but being short for Canidae and all - thankfully it was accepted…there seemed to be a lot of CA words this could be, so I wanted to check that, and turned out to be a good choice that led me directly to the answer.
Slart? I had to look that one up…urban dictionary had a rather enlightening definition.
@EllisDee Didn’t you get the memo? It’s G appreciation month!

Should have been a 4 because CANOE was obviously incorrect as I already knew ‘N’ was wrong.

Tripped over that one by accident awhile back. I thought it would be a great starting word, but needed good followup words. I finally came up with those.

I was down on myself for not thinking of a fourth word that’d better set me up for Try #5 and Try #6, but then it turned out to have been the right answer…
