---------------------

Editor: If the definition is given as "see 艾滋病[ai4zi1bing4]", some apps will substitute the definition of 艾滋病, and therefore display something like
爱死病 [àisǐbìng] AIDS (loanword)
(i.e. exactly the same definition as what we currently have)

Other apps will simply display the definition literally:
爱死病 [àisǐbìng] see 艾滋病[ai4zi1bing4]
All that does is frustrate the user, because they have to do another lookup, and they still get the same definition: "AIDS (loanword)".
Diff:
- 愛死病 爱死病 [ai4 si3 bing4] /AIDS (loanword)/
# + 愛死病 爱死病 [[ai4si3bing4]] /see 艾滋病[ai4zi1bing4]/
 
+ 愛死病 爱死病 [[ai4si3bing4]] /nonstandard, stigmatizing transliteration of "AIDS", now replaced by 艾滋病[ai4zi1bing4]/
