So the job only has to be done once, what replacement will people be
happy with? Personally, I think plain "if" would be just fine, except
perhaps to the tediously literal-minded.
In some cases, just "if" is clear.
Failing that, "only if".
As a last resort, "if and only if" (yuck).
Where just "if" is not clear, you need to get creative. Find a
rewrite which is clear. "If and only if" is ok when you need it, but since it
is a bit longer, you might look for a better method.
