<upd_detl>I know we don't usually xref prefix matches, but this seems significant. In 2017 "noble" and "dignified" were dropped from this term, but if you see the xref, that's &gt;60% of all use of this term. 

Perhaps this entry should also have glosses like "elegance", "eloquence", or "refinement".  I think that's the only way to cover the "格調がある" usage.  The current glosses are just so neutral. The daijs entry makes reference to "精神的な高さ" right in the definition.</upd_detl>
