OT:I know language develops over time -- "singular" used to mean "the only" until its meaning was debased and "unique" took its place. From around 1980 to 2000 I did a great deal of work as an editor as well as marking thousands of university essays. Every time someone tried to use an intensifier with "unique" I red-pencilled it, and not a single person objected. If you're going to allow "unique" to mean "unusual" or "rare", this is a loss. You already have "rare" and "unusual", which both take modifiers, so why not leave unique to mean "the only"? What word do you use as an adjective to signify "the only" if unique no longer has that meaning? What will you use as an adverb to take over the meaning of "uniquely"? LC
