Words are used to be easily recognizable and reduce typos. This does extend to which words are chosen, in that words are chosen to not be similar, easily confused with one another, and to have the first 4 letters be unique. But if I see SATO, I know that's SATOSHI. And vice-versa. I don't see how that can result in me making a 'typo' on my seed plate. I would not backup SATI or SAUC when trying to store SATOSHI. Or are you saying that by only storing 4 letters, the odds of being unable to identify words if the plate is damaged increases? I could see confusion if all I had to work with was SAT_. Enough of that and the seed could become unrecoverable.
