Gut is Gehorsam gegen Vater und Mutter; gegenüber Freunden, Bekannten und Verwandten und gegenüber Brāhmaṇas und Śramaṇas is Freigebigkeit gut, gegenüber Tieren is Nich-Töten gut; Mässigkeit im ausgeben und Für-Sich-Behalen ist gut (... sādhu apaviyayatā

I absolutely agree. Most probably Wilson's entry (MW's presumable
source here) goes back to the information given by contemporary
Pandits which fits perfectly well in the fact that the lemma apavyaya
is lacking in both of the Petersburg dictionaries.
