The Merge tool.
I could write an essay about its qwerks.
Limit its use to splitting topic's
Its a great idea to Merge topics but as Rick Explained to me in the past, if you change your view to "Threaded" view, you can see every new marker as a new dog leg. and its there where it falls down.
I'm lead to believe from many moons ago it was to recieve some attention but more clarification to just what its capable of.
So a new button of say "Split Topic" may come about.
Its just not worth the risk merging.
It may not have helped with one of the threads being featured either.
Its complicated behind the scenes, but Rick has looked at it several times. Maybe New Hope with V 8 ?
