    I ran my own list through the HSK Level 1 characters. The only two that were useful in a non-trivial way were ⻅ and 中. So I think that either my heuristic wasn't very good or Level 1 words are too simple for phonetic sets to be useful.

    I manually condensed the list down to two pages that I printed and hanged on my wall. Perhaps someone else finds this useful too: https://www.dropbox.com/s/zzbnyh0h3k8cgkq/Mandarin%20Phonetic%20Sets%204%2B.pdf

    Steps I took:
    * remove examples
    * remove characters with only 3 examples
    * replace pinyin numbers with diacritics
    * combine homonyms (same pinyin, different character)
