| 1. | "Cut" is a poor anagrind, unless it's part of cut…off, in which case there's no anagrind at all. | | 2. | lines, eg supply lines may get cut off, but how do lines cut an island off? | | 3. | don't like movement (a noun) as an anagram indicator | | 4. | Smooth and good join, but if 'lines' is naval terminology, it's a bit obscure for my taste |
