What do you think is the meaning of "just so" here? "merely so" or "exactly so"?

ex)Since a reinforcer must serve to strengthen the desired response, it is imperative that the counselor select a reinforcer that will have precisely this effect on the subject. For instance, the counseleor wants John and Ellen to do certain tasks. To encourage each one, John is offered a ticket to a football game and Ellen is offered a ticket to the ballet as a reward for performing the tasks. This may be good if John likes football and if Ellen likes ballet, but it just so happens that John is an enthusiastic ballet aficionado and Ellen is a passionate football fan.
