FORGO and PORCH
FORGO had already been used, so that kind of negates the idea of ”seeming more likely” being used first. At least in this case.

Hence the "being slightly lucky on this one" statement.

I understand that one word was not better than the other. I just needed to "pick one". This is the method I chose for "picking one" instead of using a quarter or going alphabetically. I do not consider it better or worse than any other method. I just needed to "pick one" method to "pick one". My brain cannot "just pick one" like you claim to do, it has to go through a process.
