>> If we [sK]  谷まる, I think all instances of　谷まる should be [sK] across all entries,
Those entries can be handled as individual cases. Here 谷まる gets tiny n-gram counts and seems not to be in any kokugo (the usual criterion for [rK]).

  Comments: 
I'm fine with [rK] in spite of the statistics - it is "correct" -  but whatever you decide.  Note: statistics for 極 and 谷 should probably not be directly compared, as they are not generally considered interchangeable in correct usage. (谷 = 窮 only, it seems).  There are modern examples of 谷まる in yourei, it appears here and there online, but is indeed rare.

If we [sK]  谷まる, I think all instances of　谷まる should be [sK] across all entries, including 進退極まる and 進退これ谷まる.  If 谷 is removed from 進退これ谷まる, that entry should probably just be deleted.

should sense two have an adj-f tag for pos/gloss agreement? or is aux-v enough?
