A quick read before you spend hints: One of its consonants appears twice, and many solvers do not test a doubled letter until they have run out of other ideas. Some of its consonants are rare in popular opening guesses, so the board can stay mostly gray for a turn or two. Once the meaning clicks it is a familiar word from news coverage, but it is rarely the first thing a solver types.
