POSSE
noun
/ˈpɒ.si/
A group or company of people, originally especially one having hostile intent; a throng, a crowd.
Difficulty 6.5/10
POSSE hides a doubled S, so players who avoid testing repeats often burn a guess on near-neighbors before they commit. The familiar -SE ending keeps everyday lookalikes alive.
Difficulty

Wordle DNA
Why?
The main pressure is ambiguity (7.5/10).
Moderate challenge: consecutive repeated letter keeps a few plausible neighbors alive longer than the word's length suggests.
