Blocking keywords can’t be used

The box where you can add words that’ll flag a comment as spam: “When a comment contains any of these words in its content, name, URL, email, or IP address, it will be put in the Trash.” is 100% unusable because “middle words” are also counted as flagged. For example, the word “audit” is used by spammers: “I did an audit of your website…” (I actually received this spam last night), but I can’t put that word in the blocklist box because the word “it” is part of the word in “audit,” thus most comments will be marked as spam because the word “it” is very common.
Why set it up like this to where nobody can use this feature? Why would somebody want to have all the words inside of words flagged? If I add the word audit, why would I want to have the word “it” flagged, too?
