Compare the inside of SHIP
Ignore the already-proven S and P while measuring new information. The middle of SHIP contributes H and I. Compare those interior letters with the same positions in the other answers; one yellow or gray clue there can settle a 8-word shortlist quickly.
SHIP fits both edges, but that only settles two squares. Its interior H and I must still match the exact positions and letter quantities shown in your round.
