yeah, no entry for そうですか suggests that this entry might be unneeded. shinmeikai does have an entry for さいです (not さいですか), but they don't have an entry for just さい (which we do now)

Glosses need to be in question form.
Is this necessary now that we have an entry for さい? We don't have そうですか.

From the forked/amended 2835807 (now さい).
I think it's worth keeping. I see MeCab/Unidic mess up the parsing, interpreting it as 際+ですか.
