daijr: "(名•形動)[文] ナリ"
Oxford: dainty | [noun] something good to eat; a delicacy.
  Comments:
I think you mean daijr, not daijs. That "[文]" is a tag for the literary (文語形) なり form. It can be found on all 形容動詞 entries (excluding recent terms).
美味 is certainly more common in written Japanese but I wouldn't consider it literary. Meikyo is usually a pretty good guide when it comes to this.
"dainty" is also a noun.

daijs does. [文]
also it's obviously not spoken language.
also "dainty" is an adjective, the other glosses are nouns.

I don't think this literary. Meikyo doesn't tag it as such.

It's not "P-tagged". See https://www.edrdg.org/cgi-bin/wwwjdic/wwwjdic?1MDJ��̣
The newspaper counts from ~20 years ago were divided into the "news1" and "news2" groups. Only the former result in a "P" tag in the EDICT versions.

Should this word really be P-tagged?
