I'd honestly have no problem with merging into the town, as it is a local landmark. It shouldn't break the GFDL even if the article is deleted, as the revision history is now available to all for deleted articles.
Probably the best way, then, to work around the poisonous dysfunction of xFD is to make the deletion moot by merging it into the town article and making the name a redirect.
Lucky me - I'd already done that for the ones that have been deleted, despite the guide to VFD warning against it! Ah, the joy of cheating the system. Now all we need is someone complaining that it shouldn't be in the town article, but at least that can't be brushed under the rug with vfd, just a nice healthy revert war.
