'Just' is not a coordinator. 'Just' here performs a Herculean task. 'I do have friends – just none that live nearby.' = 'I do have friends – the situation is not as categorical as that; I merely have none that live nearby.' You can see why people just pretend that the term 'adverb' will do for 'what on earth is this?' | |
