1. Wordle's word list is going to be a lot more curated than TFA's word list because people want to guess words they use or have heard of, not "aahed".

2. Only a tiny group of people care to "card count" Wordle to rule out words that have already been played because they think that sort of min/maxing is fun. Most people don't even think about that, so whether Wordle reuses words every few years is trivial to them.

I will say that having used the same starter word the whole time that has not come up yet, it's a little disappointing that it may now take even longer to appear.

Have you checked it didn't come up before you started?
