I raised this on the Honyaku list. No-one supported the せつ reading. I could move it over to the 切り entry, but 切 alone is "io" there. Maybe best just to leave a note here. It's all a bit marginal.

gg5 does have this sense 2.  i previously rejected it.  are we sure this is actually pronounced せつ on a switch?  i always thought it was きり without the okurigana.  obviously i could be wrong though

  Comments: 
To be frank I think せち would be better off in its own "arch" entry and cross-referenced here where appropriate. The overlap (according to Daijirin) is not that precise and all the refs are 源氏物語/宇津保物語/etc.
