Am I completely stupid, or what?
Phrase:
After a few minutes the coffee was cool enough to drink.
brings correct meaning. We divide that phrase to understand better:
After a few minutes the coffee was cool |||| enough to drink.
And your original phrase
they are big enough (for us) to ignore them
has meaning opposit to what you try to bring to us. The meaning, again, can be understood better if we divide the phrase:
they are big |||| enough to ignore them
So your original phrase can be exaggerated like that:
If they would be even bigger, we shel ignore them even esier.
(well, I never pretend that I can use "if" sentence, but hope that my logics is understandable)...
