Could The reason why "The Only" is different from "Only" be further explained? The vegetable example did not provide an explanation that showed the logical difference.

Could it be because when it is being stated in an argument or stimulus that "Only" indicates a general all-encompassing definition where "The only" will be indicating a situational example?
