For the same reason, I use the previous day's solution as the starting word.

Oh that's particularly brutal after days with repeated letters.

I'm using the same strategy and I have to say it mostly is doable. I was afraid for vivid (two repeated letters) but if I remember correctly the next day was quite doable starting from vivid.

Even the worst starting word is guaranteed <= 1 average guess more than the optimal strategy though!
