I suppose it could be confusing. In this case 'slightly' means 'a little bit' - a little bit more difficult

Well, if "more" could be rated on a scale from 1 (the minimum) to 10 (the maximum), "slightly more" would rate 1 or 2. If you want to sweeten your café, you can add several lumps of sugar (according to your taste). "A bit more sugar, please" could result in adding half a lump.
