Eve (yi-) is in the kitchen at my childhood home holding a tin can top (宀) overhead while rummaging through the trash. She lost her Apple AirTag (且), but found a tile which may be a SUITABLE replacement.

No doubt I should have asked this somewhere before character 582, but how important is it to use the exact keyword given in the course? I feel like APPROPRIATE may be more memorable for me than SUITABLE.

So long as you have a basis for the keyword change, that's fine. Bear in mind that we'll almost certainly use appropriate for another character, but it's not the worst thing to double up keywords.
