The worksheet_merge_range() function needs to write the all the cells in the merged range which is in conflict with the "constant memory" rule that it can only write one row at a time. So that is why merged ranges aren't supported in "constant memory" mode.

While it could be supported technically (i.e., it would be possible) it would take a lot of effort and isn't currently a feature that is requested very often. So overall due to complexity, effort, and lack of requests it won't be supported in the future.
