Something to do with fish? or that crap in an old kettle? maybe something you’d find at the butcher.

The word scholar is kind of squishy, so a lot of scholarly or scientific words can do double (or even greater) duty. So the problem arises: “I can see how this particular word can be thought of as scholarly/scientific, but is this what the creator of the puzzle had in mind?”
But also, we’ve seen how, in these kinds of puzzles in general, sometimes more than one acceptable word can fit in the available letter spaces, even to the point where the correct answer could easily be any one of, say, two, three, or sometimes maybe even four or five choices.
In that kind of situation, I think it becomes a matter of luck.
But if a lot of it’s luck, then, to paraphrase Will Munny, some people are lucky when it comes to wordlin’ and scholardlin’, indicating there may well be something else, or something additional, at work.
Some people said the 1980 Georgia Bulldogs were lucky, but I think they did a fine job of managing their luck.

I see what you did there!

Thanks, but I think I just got lucky on that one.

When I mess up, I tend to either go too hard or too easy, or else I forget the more scholarly definition of a more common word.
