The fourth square does not move
Keep the fourth square honest
Do not slide O into another position just to make a familiar word fit. In ABHOR, the fixed tile stays fourth while A, B, H, and R occupy the open squares. Compare those letters with the board first; then use the position leaders to break ties among the survivors.
ABHOR keeps O 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.
