Why the last letter is the useful one

In a crossword, the final square is very often the first one a crossing answer fills in. In Scrabble, the last letter is what lets you hook onto something already on the board. Either way you tend to know how a word ends before you know how it starts, which makes this list more practically useful than the equivalent list of beginnings.
