I just googled for the boggle rules, and the q on the die always has a u after
it. I therefore don't think that words with a q on its own should have been in
the test data.

I am saying this to save face, as I didn't consider this possibility.

But it does mean that you can't get the word queen from:

quee
snon
rbit
zdog

as only quueen would be available. Correct?
