First-turn measures

All four describe AMITY used as an opening guess. Entropy is the same idea as “avg ruled out” on a log scale: a higher number means the guess splits the possible answers into more, smaller groups.

172 Avg remaining
0.04% Exact match
92.7% Avg ruled out
Higher first-turn entropy than about 64% of evaluated openers
