What is the meaning of "If for no other reason (than)..." I have trouble understanding this phrase "If for no other reason (than)..." Actually I've seen the same question being asked on the web, including here on italki, but I still don't quite get it. Here are some usage examples that I have seen so far: - He will have an honored place in history if for no other reason than that he and Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev refused to use force to preserve the Soviet empire. - There is some value in helping kids understand how coats work, Grotzer says — if for no other reason than the science is useful. - I understand that John’s living up there now as well and, if for no other reason I should go up and visit everybody, while he’s there. I understand that the phrase implies that the speaker thinks whatever the reason mentioned here is not the ONLY SINGLE reason. So in a nutshell, is the speaker saying that "there could be some other reasons but the major reason is ......"?
