I have thought much the same. I did think about trying to do it with a couple of posters (for my own amusement as opposed to trying to cheat), but realised that would be a really sad thing to do.
I used the same opening word for a very long time and got a ‘hole in one’ with it some months before I started posting on here. Cam mentioning that the publisher of the game had said that they would not repeat a word prompted me to change and to experiment with a mixed level of success.

A 3 I was very happy with since there were at least two very valid contenders on that guess.
Kerr, you’re definitely in the groove at the moment. A good starter word is obviously a plus but it’s probably that precise and logical legal brain that gives you the advantage…
I use a different starter word each day and dependent upon the outcome of my first guess, try to cover the vowels and most common consonants in my first two guesses. Totally illogical (in fact gruesque) I base my starter word on the previous day's Wordle. I think as a result I have hot spells and cold spells but the net result is just 4 fails in 925 tries and an average of around 3.8.
