This reminds me a lot of NYT strands, in the sense that it’s “multiple themed rounds of classic word game format X” In the strands example, the base word game is a word search in which they break the rules a bit to make it harder. Here it’s a simple word unscrambling. Makes me wonder what other games you could make by following this “themed rounds of X” format.

Zip codes are just weird to use for anything other than mail in general because they’re set up based off infrastructure.

It might be fun to collect the same data if not for any other reason than to note the changes but adding the caveat that it doesn’t represent human output.
Might even change the tool name.
The point was it’s getting harder and harder to do that as things get locked down or go behind a massive paywall to either profit off of or avoid being used in generative AI. The places where previous versions got data is impossible to gather from anymore so the dataset you would collect would be completely different, which (might) cause weird skewing.
