I've wondered similar. I haven't noticed any theme words since the brief dalliance in 2022 so I think it would be fitting if tomorrow's word is boring.
“World piece”

Having tried this a few times, I've confirmed I'm not great with anagrams and even worse with trying to find anagrams to then turn into words. This is the first time I didn't get any incorrect words.
Yeah, the Connections editor is too clever by far.
I'm not great with them either, but I've done surprisingly well on Strands so far. I've gotten good enough mileage out of the title to suss out the right words and then go on from there.
“That’s fortunate”

Not quite as good as yesterday; I missed the second word of the spanagram and second half after WISH. I did notice today's puzzle was from the Connections author.
🟦⬛🟦⬛🟧 AISLE
⬛🟧🟧🟦🟧 CHASE
🟧🟧🟧🟧🟧
Oh man, from guess 3 there were like 5-6 possible answers. Really glad I picked the right one. I tend to do poorly in those situations.
I was one letter short of starting with a spanagram. Also it took me an embarrassingly long time to piece together SEVENTEEN despite it being the final word.
Did you also start with WAIL? That one led me down the fruitless path of finding other sound words until I tried HOARSE (no, not HOARS stupid click-and-drag) and the rest clicked.
I saw HORSE first, but then I saw and went with MUSCLE. After that I looked again, saw it was HOARSE, then figured it out. I was also looking for -NYMS, not -PHONES so it took me a second to figure out the yellow bulb.

They leaned into today with their first two words.
I wonder if the 1000th Wordle tomorrow will have some sort of "acknowledgement."

Right. There was a lot of pushback after a holiday theme solution around Thanksgiving I think. But GRAND would be the logical if they weren't there.
Yeah, I was one of those -- the first of my two 1 Guess solutions.
If the editor did, it would have to be a different word. GRAND was used on June 24, 2023. MILLE would be amusing.
Hmmm.
Might have to guess "grand"
