Proud to get purple, that’s not the sort of reasoning I tend to go for. Although the disparity in the words made it clear that it was something weird. Also wanted to pick up on movie set jobs.

Needed spouse for 4th blue. (I didn’t like the item I had picked for 4th, but it seemed least likely to fit anywhere else, so I tried it.)

?? But it was your first. Does that mean you felt sure of the other 3 groupings and were going for the reverse?

a few people claim that often
I believe they try to solve outside the game (memory or paper) and then decide the reverse order

Yes, a few times - very few, and never successfully - I tried for the reverse using paper. But even back when I was trying for the reverse, if unsure of all four connections I think I would have started with ones I was sure of to confirm I was on the right track. I think I only tried two or three times. In each, I knew all four connections with rationale for all four, but didn’t get the reverse since I guessed colors wrong.
