Unseen tiles: aeooz (5 tiles)

FWIW, Maven gives a few best play sequences as follows:

Best: 3L DUE(8) gains 10 points after 9K OOZE(25) and 15K TAINT(25+2)
2K ENNUI(12) gains 9 points after OOZE and 10M ATT(20+2)
3L DIE(8) gains 9 points after N1 ZOEAE(28) and TAUNT
15K TINEA(25) gains 8 points after OOZE and 2L NUT(6+2)

A few other plays win using the themes above: blocking DOZE
and cashing 15K-15O.

15H ATE(19) falls short after 3L DOZE(28) and 11L UNIT(7+2)
