Compare the inside of LACE
Ignore the already-proven L and E while measuring new information. The middle of LACE contributes A and C. Compare those interior letters with the same positions in the other answers; one yellow or gray clue there can settle a 5-word shortlist quickly.
LACE fits both edges, but that only settles two squares. Its interior A and C must still match the exact positions and letter quantities shown in your round.
