○○にとってお前はＴＶの中のアイドルみたいなもんで、恋愛対象としては全くの圏外だって

I think this use is an extension of 優勝圏外 or 当選圏外 but this specific use is not really clear from the glosses, only "out of contention" kind of works but even then it's not quite clear what 当選圏外 would mean

Out of reach?

I don't think "(being)" is right. 圏外 doesn't describe a state/quality. As with most 〜外 terms, it doesn't really translate into English as a noun.

OK.

I think this division is comfortable for the reader, as the first sense is more 
common and precise than the second one (all the related examples from 
the TC are also about the first sense) ; then the v-s in the first sense is 
usually intransitive while the second vs is often transitive. (see the 
examples above)

>I've seen editors in the past refer to the oldness of kokugo citations, but from my understanding, Kojien intentionally records the *earliest* known usage of a word.

I know this is true for Nikk, so probably for koj too. Daij OTOH don't normally go for the oldest citation, but they both have archaic examples for all senses here, so I'm not sure.

* wisdom: many birds; various kinds of birds.

Hmm, I think it'd be strange for Meikyo to explicitly tag the other two senses but not the first one. The first sense is also in Shinmeikai. We usually look at presence in these two kokugos to determine modernity of senses. It's not in the usual JEs, but it is in Wisdom, and presence in JEs is also another factor we use. It's also in NHK Accent dictionary.

I've seen editors in the past refer to the oldness of kokugo citations, but from my understanding, Kojien intentionally records the *earliest* known usage of a word. Don't have a source for this, but I've never exactly seen modern citations from Kojien. Daijisen, in contrast, cites a 20th-century poet.

Koj, Daijr/s

When Rene amended it in 2008 he added "arch" to sense 1 - Koj quotes 万葉集 for it. I think they're all arch.
Messy to do that extraction.  There are about 1200 multi-sense entries with "arch" on the first one. Most have it on all. I can dig further I guess.

meikyo has 〔古〕 on senses 2 and 3, not on 1.

I don't think we need to specify the scientific name when it's arch / less common synonym (there's the xref)

Jim, would it be possible to make a list of all jmdict entries where the first sense is arch, but one or more subsequent senses aren't? Arch should never lead in such entries, right?

Thanks for the tip. I wonder how long it's been there (it was an overflowing field). Didn't happen in other sites, but then overflow effects depend on compiler version, libraries, etc. Took quite a while to track down.

I don't think that just a latin name makes a good gloss.
Here neither species nor genus seems to have an English name.
Wiki says of the family Dryopteridaceae:
"They are known colloquially as the wood ferns".
"Wood fern" also means the genus Dryopteris.
I think the gloss should be
  Polystichum tripteron (species of the wood fern family)
or just
  Polystichum tripteron (species of fern).
