Why point rhymes the way it does
In our engine, point registers as a one-syllable word on the /ษษช/ diphthong (/ษษช/) that closes on the nasal-stop pairing. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 10 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 46, assonance 2,368, and consonance 348. The empty family column matters less than it looks. Family rhymes are a strict-classifier construct; the songwriter's ear accepts most assonance matches in their place. Practical guidance: read the song aloud and listen for where a slant would tighten the line. Strict rhymes are the structural skeleton; the slant columns are where the personality of the lyric lives. With point, the slant work is doing more weight-bearing than it looks.
