Just for the record, the merger is not happening yet. Even if it's approved in the US after the FTC lost it's bid to pause it recently, it has still been denied in the UK. That has not been reversed and the appeal process for that typically takes longer than the deal would be possible. MS is seeking an expedited appeal.

Now, that being said, the UK's reasoning for stopping it was weirdly bad (cloud gaming monopoly), but that's what they went with, so who knows.
