>> [Search-only forms] do not participate in the restriction structure

[sK] forms effectively do not have an associated reading in JMdict, even if the entry only has one reading.

For example, we now have 先陣切る[sK] in entry 2859782 even though the only reading in that entry is せんじんをきる.

My app crashed because there are no readings with restrictions that are matching 少し宛. I'm not sure if it should match both available kana readings, seems like 宛 only has -づつ kun reading

I don't see how 宛 is an [oK] form, this is the only kanj (sparsely) used to write ずつ and it's a jouyou kanji.

Also baffled that only jitsuyou has this (without the kanji form)
