This puzzle's semantic breakdown
"attorney" sits in a tightly packed corner of semantic space. Its ten nearest neighbors average 0.652 similarity, with "lawyer", "attorneys", "solicitor" pressed right up against it. Words like this have a dense field: once you find the right direction, your rank climbs fast.
The decay here is sharp — it starts at 0.834 and is down to 0.401 by rank 100, a 0.433 fall. Past the very top words, everything goes cold quickly.
The hidden thread this round is "counsel" (0.642). It belongs to a different branch than the leader "lawyer", so intuitive guessing rarely lands on it — but once it clicks, the puzzle opens up.
