(comment)	EDICT currently has けったい as an alternative reading for 希代.  This seems to be incorrect; it does not mean the same as 希代, and while an etymological link is theorised, the more popular theory appears to derive it from 卦体 (e.g. 語源由来辞典 mentions both but prefers 卦体, while 大辞林 does not mention the 希代 theory at all.)
ISTM that けったい should therefore be removed from the 希代 entry and given its own along the lines of the above.
(A 関西弁 tag might also be in order - I'm not sure where to put that in the form above, though.)
