Evidence boundary

Co-occurrence is not popularity or etymology

The pair relation comes from exact JMnedict source rows through the compact kanji-usage index. KANJIDIC2 contributes character metadata only. A high corpus count can reflect dictionary coverage and should not be read as a national usage frequency.
