Probably because you’ve already heard that quotation with the whosoever. In the encoding scheme where 0 encodes the lyrics to “Bohemian Rhapsody” and the encodings of all other messages start with 1, the lyrics to “Bohemian Rhapsody” have the shortest “length” in your sense of the word.
I’m talking about writing to memory, not reading from it. I don’t think it’s just because I’ve heard it with “whosoever”, I think it’s because “whosoever” is more poetic and distinct in context.
You can improve the wisdom to length ratio just by taking the “so” out of the whosoevers.
Edit: already done, and right below me too.
Length isn’t measured in number of letters, it’s measured in ease of memorization, the encoding scheme of the brain. “Whosoever” flows better.
