Swap a single tile in indices and you get a different seven-letter rack with its own word list. None of these appear in the results above — they share 6 of the 7 letters, not all of them.
indices is in the NWL, the official Scrabble word list for North America, and in the Words With Friends dictionary, so it's playable exactly as it stands and needs no unscrambling.
The 2-point gap between the two totals comes from the tile values themselves: Scrabble and Words With Friends price the same letters differently.
indices is one of two seven-letter words the same letters produce. No arrangement of the same tiles scores higher in Scrabble, so playing indices unchanged also takes the maximum points these letters offer.
The highest-scoring plays from these letters are incised and indices, worth 10 points in Scrabble, and nothing else built from indices earns more points in Scrabble. Words With Friends prices the same letters differently, so the top of the list changes on a Words With Friends board. Both scores count tile values only and exclude premium squares.
