how do you pronounce bed, Fred, fed, federal, Ned, debit, credit, ... I could go on.

I can think of fecal...., oh and legal, I like to pronounce special speecial, but that is just me. I can think of far more examples where e is pronounced with a short sound than examples where an "e" says "ee" on it's own.


Well, there's just about every case where you're removing something
from something else - de-flate, de-burr, de-toxify, etc.  But I don't
have any idea what a "bian" is, so how you would de-bian something is
a complete mystery.


Ah! So true. I knew I was missing something.  That might explain it.
But like you said, I never heard of no "bian".
