Best form = the single best-ranked form in the corpus, share-blind — how the spelling itself ranked. Share = how much of that spelling belongs to this lemma, when several senses compete for it. Zipf rank = all the forms combined (variant spellings included), each scaled by its share, and what feeds the combined frequency rank. Combining forms improves on the best form, but a share below 100% pushes the other way and usually wins: a sense holding a small slice of a common spelling is a rare word, so its rank lands downrated below the best form — and once it falls past what the corpus can support it is capped at the rank an unlisted word would get.
