I agree this seems a bit wonky; someone should feel free to suggest
a fix.

As you can see, there is a default sense and three specialized senses. It
seems to me that {banro} means "grow" in the sense "increase in size", but
that is disturbingly similar to {brabi'o}'s "become larger". I don't know.
The only difference I can see between {brabi'o} and {banro} is what places
they come with, and it's not very nice to say "only under certain
conditions and previous size not implied" in {brabi'o}'s gloss.
