	Comments:	Not sure it needs the adj-na as well.

	Comments:	For sense 1, it's not prenominal outside of compounds borrowed from English (e.g. ブラックペッパー, ブラックボックス, ブラックホール). When used to describe the colour of some arbitrary thing, it's always ブラックの〜. I think adj-f is appropriate for sense 3.

	Comments:	We usually have colors as n,adj-no. But would adj-f be better here?

	Refs:	daij nikk gg5 daijr says ④ 外来語の上に付いて、「不正な」「闇の」などの意を表す。, not adj-na, but I see this is commonly adj-na, though this usage is probably more [col] than the [n-pref] (pref?) use. (which is why I did both n-pref and adj-na, though we normally don't) don't know what to do about sense 2 in terms of pos. ブラックすぎる 755 "上司のブラックすぎる発言「ちゃんと避妊してる？」「熱があるなんて嘘つくな」「寝不足でも死なない」" https://news.careerconnection.jp/?p=68594 https://seikatsu-hyakka.com/archives/20769 http://tenagent.jpn.org/100.html "予想通りと考える方も多いと思いますが、「この会社はブラックだ！」とみんなが思う理由ダントツの1位として、29名の方がサービス残業に対しての不満を挙げました。" ブラックな会社 342
