C and T lock the outside
Compare the inside of CAPUT
Ignore the already-proven C and T while measuring new information. The middle of CAPUT contributes A, P, and U. Compare those interior letters with the same positions in the other answers; one yellow or gray clue there can settle a 15-word shortlist quickly.
CAPUT fits both edges, but that only settles two squares. Its interior A, P, and U must still match the exact positions and letter quantities shown in your round.
