I avoid merging on the basis of a lesser sense. Better to add it as a sense to both entries and cross-reference, or add it to one with an "also read ..." note.

四大(よんだい、しだい)は、4つの大きなもの、重要なもの。英語ではビッグ・フォー ,(Big 4)。
we have separate entries for よんだい and しだい with different meanings. if we want to include a "Big 4" sense, which I think makes sense, 
should they be merged?
