There are certain things that are quite obviously bad ideas, things that will obviously quickly cascade out of control.

Alphabet Soup: They end up getting so many sets that you end up with tangible piles of words.

Someone really needs to go through these and put them in alphabetical order. I mean, trying to write anything is nearly impossible just because you spend so long looking through the pile to find the word you want that you end up forgetting what you were trying to write in the first place. And that's no good.
