I never got too too far into the language, so I absolutely believe there are more layers and variances to the meaning than the basic glosses I learned! But that feels like it fits in the counterpoint/point kind of framework, I think? Just with an additional kind of "temporal" or "ordering" connotation.

It's not so much "on one hand yes, on the other hand no". It's more like "do the thing I want, but also at least do the thing I want too".

But there's also the meaning of "this and that", so you might be right.

Yeah, that sounds right to me; like, "Sure that, but more importantly, this"?
