Compare the inside of ECLAT
Ignore the already-proven E and T while measuring new information. The middle of ECLAT contributes C, L, and A. Compare those interior letters with the same positions in the other answers; one yellow or gray clue there can settle a 10-word shortlist quickly.
ECLAT fits both edges, but that only settles two squares. Its interior C, L, and A must still match the exact positions and letter quantities shown in your round.
