I see comments in various pages in the Wiki that some proposed gismu clashes
with some preexisting gismu. For instance, {tango} is said to clash with
{tanko}. I know that similar consonants were checked when making the gimste,
but I don't see why anything but having the same first four letters is a
clash, according to the morphology.
IIRC, the gismu making algorithm excluded all words that differed only by a voiced/unvoiced distinction or for palatals, only a stop/fricative (s/c or z/j distinction).
