Except it wouldn't be 99.9% of the time. Just the games were you guessed fewer than GP.

GP's solver would expect to guess the correct word 100% of the time in fewer than 6 guess, but not that it would always take 6 guesses.

I was saying if you hypothetically got every correct guess in exactly 6 tries. You would pass the suggested “bare minimum” while my 99.9% strategy doesn’t, yet I claim my strategy is better.

For some value of better, sure.

Sure, where "some value of better" is "wins in the overwhelming majority of rounds."
