  Comments:
I did an amendment to this and forgot to press Submit.
I was wondering, given we have the entry 引けを取る (to be outdone by; to compare unfavorably with), whether this entry is needed. OTOH this form is FAR more common than the verb expression, so it's probably best to have both.
FWIW both Tanaka sentences for 引けを取る actually use 引けを取らない.
