This feels far too long for the task at hand - what am I missing?!

BQN, 18 bytes^SBCS

'A'-¬⊸⌊2×13-˜⌜○↕14

Run online!

This solution computes a table of c-r, where r is the row number and c is the column number, so that the first row is 0 1 2… and the first column is 0 ¯1 ¯2…. After this it maps non-positive numbers 0 ¯1 ¯2… to A C E…, and positive ones 1 2… to B D…, using the arithmetic expanded below. BQN's extension of boolean negation ¬ to mean one minus the argument is helpful here.

'A'-¬⊸⌊2×13-˜⌜○↕14
         13     14  # Numbers
              ○↕    # Range of each
           -˜⌜      # Subtract-from table    0 ¯1 ¯2 /  1  2
       2×           # Times two              0 ¯2 ¯4 /  2  4
    ¬⊸              # 1 minus, then…         1  3  5 / ¯1 ¯3
      ⌊             # Minimum with original  0 ¯2 ¯4 / ¯1 ¯3
'A'-                # Subtract from 'A'      A  C  E /  B  D

I tried to do it without writing the full list 'YWUSQOMKIGECABDFHJLNPRTVXZ' but couldn't get less than 61 bytes. Do not hesitate to give me advice :)
