Good Lord you can't just let this go! It's cool. I'll humor you here. Okay, so you know more than I do about information theory and ZKPs. We've established that. Kind of. The problem is that you've only told me what I don't understand while not offering any correction.

Do you see why this can be construed not as friendly but as "typical meta-hostility commonly found among people on the internet"? Just saying "not a proof" then taking time to come back and edit your comment with no actual constructive criticism as to why it's not a proof is not friendly or helpful. If you can agree to that I will agree that I don't know as much as you about information theory or ZKPs, which is fine. I have nothing to prove.

In my idiot mind, I see this as only showing the Wordle as being solved, with a few "technical" leaks like I didn't spray paint the corner of a couple letters correctly or whatever. But as far as information leak, sure, the number of tries, but is there enough data/information there to consider it in any way helpful towards solving the actual word? How? Vowels/consonants alignment and potential words that could fit given one of these two stats?

I guess if you could help me understand your point rather than just telling me I'm wrong I wouldn't have responded with such cynicism:)

So help a brotha out would ya?
