1. | Nice idea but i’d expect good-for-nothing to replace nothing with good rather than good with nothing | 2. | Nothing-for-good, surely? | 3. | Good-for-nothing would signify replacing O by G, not the opposite | 4. | Lovely construction. | 5. | The wordplay would be properly clued "nothing-for-good". This doesn't quite work. | 6. | Nice idea but good for nothing is G for O not O for G |
