  Comments:
As 縹緻 is not a variant of 器量, I don't think we can make it sK unless we include an "also written as 縹緻" note on sense 1. I'm not sure if that's a better approach (considering the form's rarity).

I'm inclined to change that rK to sK and remove the 器量 restrictions from the later senses. After all the kokugos only say ...とも書く... and are not stating that 縹緻 really is a valid surface form.
