Yes, that's my point. Potential plates (at least in this system) are uniformly distributed, so you can't use the clustering to your advantage. For words, there are (say) 100,000 starting with 'exa' but 0 starting with 'ejf'. So your top level of tree, if you make it 3 characters (max 26³ entries), can cut out whole sections of the theoretical word space. That is because of the clustering of words within the search space which is predictable and non-random.
