Otherwise, a manual merge can be performed leaving the merged page as

Sufficient for satisfying people on Wikipedia perhaps! But what about
sufficient for the licence we are using? I don't see how it even comes close
to providing copyright/attribution information on the content. Having such
information available by viewing the page history is one thing - it's
another entirely to suggest that it's acceptable to have to go hunting for
the old page history on what is now a redirect.
