"Flex" is still used in BrE to refer to flexible insulated cables.
I looked through the Reverso results and they're full of product descriptions where I have no idea what "flex" is referring to. Can it really mean "something flexible"?

Reverso has a lot of flexible-hours matches, as well as examples where it means something flexible.
フレックス	414712

Maybe this works. I know we don't like abbreviations as the first gloss, but it's the main meaning of the term in Japanese.
When I was younger "flex" usually meant flexible electrical cable, but I'm not sure it does now.
The n-grams are certainly skewed by company names.

I see we removed "mutually" and "reciprocally" from our 交互に a few years ago.

A user asked us to add "mutual" as a definition for 交互 on WaniKani. However, "mutual" and "reciprocal" are better represented by 相互 and 相互的な, not 交互. 交互 actually means "by turns" or "in turn," where one person does something after another alternately, often repeating the pattern.

mainly look at the kokugos when it comes to 
tagging things as vs or not.

Both the references I quoted (one for each sense) had early ～する glosses/examples.

This isn't vs in the kokugos and there's not much support for it in the n-grams either. Plenty of examples on Twitter of sense 2 being used with する so I suggest restricting the vs tag to that sense.
