"the only thing needed" doesn't work as a gloss.

I noticed that all the example sentences are for just two senses so I'll swap the order of 2 and 3.

I think this is OK (not looking forward to fixing the sentences.)

  Comments: 
All the J-Es have this as 3 senses (with the ordering of the last two varying):

1 [すら] ("even")
2 [その上さらに] (we didn't have this)
3 [それだけで十分] (the other glosses)

Apologies in advance if this messes up the sentence indexing.
