IG has to sit as a pair here, not scattered through the word. 169 qualify, starting with ALIGN, BIGOT, CIGAR.
All 169 are here, ordered by what each one rules out rather than alphabetically.
S is the ending to expect here, closing 30 of these words. The company these words keep: A (46), S (44) and E (43). 16 of the 169 are words you already use. That is a small share, so a guess made of the letters above beats a guess made of rare ones.
