The Saju view
Say Sophie slowly and the first thing the mouth does is press air past the teeth, a movement the system files under metal. Sophie is a metal name in the sound-element table, which is why it ranks near the top for charts that lack metal. A chart lacking water can lean on the metal in Sophie, since metal is the parent of water in Saju. A chart that already holds plenty of metal is better served by another name, since Sophie would add to it.
