If correct, the best I can promise will be quite a late one tomorrow, probably at least 2 hours late - sorry.

Very bad starters

I wouldn't say that. Your first 2 guesses knocked out 1/3 of the alphabet. After guess 3 you only had 2 letters. But, by limiting the remaining choices your 4th guess solved. I much prefer your situation over what mine was today:

After guess 4 I still had 2 untried vowels and half the alphabet left. I was getting a bit tight sphinctered by then (well, as much as losing a silly game could  ).

My last three major problems in my code involved buffer overruns.
These are fun on the ESP32 or other platforms without memory protection because you don't crash when the Bad Thing(TM) happens. You crash in the aftermath as a consequence, by for example, trying to execute an illegal instruction because your data overwrote your code.
Because of that, even *if* your stack dump isn't corrupt you still won't get much in the way of a hint as to where the actual error is.
The bottom line is you get to debug it blind.
I solved the last three times this happened, and it's making me a better troubleshooter. Damn it's difficult though.
To err is human. Fortune favors the monsters.

Reminds me of the good old days when one of the operators would come in to the office with a 300-500 page hexdump of the operating system, because it crashed.

I was thinking it reminded me of the little less old days (1992) when I was learning C/C++ pointers on a machine running DOS 5.x and Win 3.1
It was the same then. The machine or app didn't immediately crash or anything. Just kept going until that memory was used by something else.
A lot of the crashing now is caused because of DEP (Data Execution Prevention[^])
They're false crashes. The program probably would've kept on going.  Leave my code alone, Windows!

I first learned C under Dos 3.1 on an Olivetti PC. And the same problem of course, it just stopped when something went wrong.

Thats northing I learnt C on Amiga 500 with NorthC made CC on Linux look user friendly!

Olivetti! That brings back memories of my Olivetti laptop. 512K of memory, twin 720k floppy disks, no hard drive, CGA screen - good times! Programming in C. Compiler and source on one floppy, linker and libraries on the other.
- I would love to change the world, but they wonβt give me the source code.

What a comfortable setup, you didn't have to swap disks.
