it would be nice to be able to merge posts into a megathread

I know this website is already incredibly feature rich for a small user base. But megathreads would be nice to counter duplicates

I want this too. The problem is specification. How exactly should it work?

IMO merging should not be a unilateral decision, so OPs need to coordinate, which means OP's need to request and approve merges from each other.
How to display merged threads? Whose title/text is displayed first? Perhaps the merge request involves proposing the new merge post title/text?
