Is a compound-word clue like BUTTERFLY valid if only part of it, like butter, relates to a board word?
Several posters agree the whole word must carry the link; one dissents.

No, not through the part. A clue must relate to the meaning of the whole word. BUTTERFLY can point to an insect-related word, but it is invalid for KITCHEN when the only link is the butter inside it.
