  Comments:
Splitting out "rebel".
My refs don't mention floors or layers.
The source for the software versioning sense is Wikipedia, which says it's a term used by Fujitsu. I don't think it's worth including. Not seeing any evidence of more widespread use.
I think レヴェル can be hidden. Web results are mostly "Revel".

OK, but I'll propose レブル for jmnedict as it's the Honda "Rebel" motorbike, which is probably where its n-grams count originates.

I think レブル can go. It's not in the refs and most online hits are irrelevant.
The kokugos have a "水平面。水平線" sense but it's not adjectival so I've dropped sense 4 and made a new (broader) sense using some of the sense 1 glosses.

Merging 1146250. Much of the count for レヴェル seems to be coming from people/company names.
