I used a three letter word in my trash list, and it matched a longer word containing it.
Haven't seen this until today.
I THINK!!!   
  
Gone from the list!

(22,000 posts)6. I found out the hard way.
        Like "Where the heck is my thread?"
I looked for words to trash in "Silicon Valley insiders are trying to unseat Biden with help of AI" and found none.
Looking through the list, I found "Sea". Well, there it was.
Being a long-time Unix person, that's a subset match (as in grep)
