The fourth square does not move
Keep the fourth square honest
Do not slide G into another position just to make a familiar word fit. In BILGE, the fixed tile stays fourth while B, I, L, and E occupy the open squares. Compare those letters with the board first; then use the position leaders to break ties among the survivors.
BILGE keeps G fourth, but the other 4 letters still need permission from your board. A single misplaced green or reused gray is enough to rule it out.
