I think Latin aut and autem originated as signaling disjunction, but came to incorporate counter-expectional or adversary meaning. Not sure about the direction of change though. One would have to check the etymological dictionaries, though. Maybe also: English ‘a kind, if stupid boy’, where there’s is subjective meaning overlaying the mere disjunction.
I would check literature on subjectification/subjectivity
Best regards,
Freek Van de Velde.

Dear colleagues,

Does anyone of you know of, in any language, of a semantic change "or" > "nevertheless"?

Kind regards,
