This isn't something that can be usefully discussed. "Word" has a vague enough definition that a contraction can validly be considered one or two words. If you try and look to linguistics you'll just see they use specialized words with stricter definitions.

Regardless it's more reasonable for me to say "that's" is a five letter word than it is for the AI to say "spells" is a five letter word.
