Repeated letters
CACAO, DITTO, HELLO, and POTTO are among the repeated-letter choices. For a cleaner letter test, compare them with ABMHO, AUDIO, and CAMEO.
Reading order
ABMHO, AUDIO, CACAO, CAMEO, and CANTO open the list; VIREO is the final entry alphabetically.
This set is small enough for a single careful pass: ABMHO opens it, LINGO marks the midpoint and VIREO closes it. Cross out conflicts as you go instead of rereading the whole list after every clue.
A, E, and I appear across the open parts of the list more often than the other movable letters. ABMHO exposes 4 distinct letters outside the fixed clue: A, B, M, and H.
16 of the 26 matches use 2 vowels. ABMHO is one concrete example of that shape.
O closes every answer
Hold O at the end and work backward through the evidence. Before that known tile, ABMHO tests A, B, M, and H without a duplicate. Check those letters against the earliest open squares first, because that is where similar endings usually part company.
The final O earns ABMHO a place on this page. The earlier letters still need to satisfy your greens, yellows and exclusions before the word deserves a turn.
