Currently, the word "only" in "only if" is marked. I think this is a legitimate use and should not be marked.

I'm not sure only should be marked at all. It's a conjunction most of the time, not an adverb.

Yes, "only" should not be considered a weasel word. It's often necessary for normal english statements without a comparable synonym.

2020 10 19. Agree only is a necessary word. Only is still reporting errors.
