Yup, agree. It's pretty subtle. Of course, it could be coincidental too.

I have now looked up famous events on Aug 9 and there are quite a few biggies:

1) Nagasaki atomic bomb dropped
2) Ford becomes President after Nixon resigns
3) Holiday in India memorializing Gandhi civil disobedience movement
4) Gretzky traded to the LA Kings
5) South Sudan becomes a country
6) Jesse Owens wins 4th gold
7) Sharon Tate found slain
8) Jerry Garcia does
9) Michael Brown Jr killed, eventurally sparking the BLM movement

And yet the reference to the Worldle answer is still too subtle to me.

And while I’m here anyway:

Yesterday's answer of "LOVER" was likely timed with Taylor Swift's last US tour date for her record breaking "Eras tour". Her previous album was named "Lover".
