The root of "none the less" or "never the less" might be "no less" or "no less than", with "none" being tangible and "never" being temporal.
It seems to be a comparative phrase. It is usually used in the second half of a sentence after a comma (like the word "but" or "even though").
"None the less" is probably often mis-used:
"He's having a hard time learning english, none the less he is very smart."
sounds better as . . .
"He's having a hard time learning english, but he is very smart none the less."
and the possible root term . . .
"He's having a hard time learning english, but he is no less smart for it."

When you see a group of women walking down the street and you decided if you would bang all of them or none of them; you cannot pick and choose.
guy 1: look over there. All or none?
guy 2: all
guy 1: even the whale?
guy 2: the chick in the middle is totally worth it. You gotta take the good with the bad.

What you have to respond to a wedding invitation with when you are far too sexy to find a date in time.
The Tinder crop this year wasn’t very plentiful so he had to respond plus none to the wedding - guess he’ll have to dance with his grandma all night.
