I'm comfortable with just one sense. Tagging two doesn't bother me.

  Comments:
or maybe this is the better way to handle usage tags for a term where the headword has a news tag but the "best" reading is ambiguous?

せいしゃ listed as first/only reading in koj, shinmeikai, meikyo; secondary reading to せいじゃ in daij, gg5
  Comments:
i don't see any evidence that this is two senses.  the kokugos seem to be pretty clear that this refers to 者 (people) as the term suggests, even for the reading しょうじゃ (although gg5 gives しょうじゃ a broader "living things" meaning, i think this comes from its translation of 生者必滅... probably better handled there)

further, i expect that しょうじゃ is archaic outside of 生者必滅, is not from newspapers and it should be listed last

(a) not really an antonym.
(b) watch out for inserting spaces in odd places.
