It is a deliberate probe rather than a possible answer here: the point is to separate the remaining answers cleanly.

Hard Mode Use STAMP instead.

ABBOT does not fit this page's clues. STAMP keeps every clue shown here and leaves an average remainder of 1.67 (2 in its worst branch). Check any additional yellow-position clues in the full Solver.

Tight family: ST_MP

STAMP, STOMP, STUMP differ only in the third position. Trying them one at a time can use several turns; ABBOT tests the family more efficiently.
