I found the blue pretty easy because in my work I'm always looking for synonyms for "become larger" or "increase" (budgets, usually).

OK, I have a beef with that baffling bot. It wasn't especially critical today but I think I beat it. Yet it insists it solved the puzzle in four guesses! But here are its words: CRANE, CAMEL, FANCY, WHICH. First of all, how is that solving the puzzle in four words since WHICH isn't the answer? I know the bot must feel embarrassed about requiring five guesses, but that's no excuse for lying. Second, it told me "more efficient" second and third selections would have been CAMEL and FANCY. Why would those be more efficient? They'd eliminate more possibilities, maybe, but wouldn't get any closer to the right answer -- and my guesses actually found correct letters! And if it's about eliminating other possibilities, why did Bot waste three guesses on words with As in them, after A was eliminated in the first one? Bot always mocks me when I make guesses that previous answers said were wrong. And the only correct letter in either of those guesses is Y. They might have eliminated other letters and therefore words, but they contained no real clues. How did it even go from them to WHINY, and when did it get to WHILE? Am I misreading this somehow? Is Bot trying to gaslight me??!
I don't get you, Bot del Mar.
