  Comments:
keep in mind that this is a japanese-english dictionary.  in addition, i don't think the disambiguation would be successful because as per above, 遊泳 can be used in a technical sense and 水泳 also means for leisure

If a person looks for the Japanese word for "swimming" on, for instance, jisho.org, they see the kanji compounds 水泳 and 遊泳. Without nuance, there's no way for a dictionary user to tell these two apart, only if the person previously knows 遊, but should we make these assumptions?

I don't see the need to do that, and it gives an unnecessary nuance.
