Good try.

But I'm afraid that's an interjection. It doesn't qualify as a sentence.
Fair enough.

So the sentence must have a subject and a verb but no proper noun? Sheesh. Should I even bother? What's the best one so far, 3 letters?

I believe I shall move on.

Not really. A sentence must either have these or sufficiently imply them. There are no precise rules.

(That may be why this thread struggled on for so long.)

Never mind this Shortest Palindrome nonsense. When you have time you should visit me at the Moor Room, a new local restaurant for palindromists. Here is the menu:

DO, O FOOD [main course]
Tangy gnat
Koalas a la OK
La emu meal
Salad, alas

GORGE GROG [drinks]
Regal Lager
Lemon O'Mel

DESSERTS STRESSED
Sugar a' Gus
Bananas an’ a Nab

And after dinner, I will strap you down and make you listen to some of my new poetry, the fourth-worst in the world after Vogon poetry:

AMEN, ICY CINEMA

Amen, I can!
I stop elastic ire
To see La Dolce Vita.

Covet?
I moisten nose,
Sonnets I omit, evocative clod!

Ale? Esoteric?
It's ale! Pots in a cinema!

After all, are we not drawn onward, we few, drawn onward to new era?

You need to see a doctor:
