The attitude of "I'm not going to help out the person merging" is a nice microcosm for society these days. Nothing of benefit is really gained from not helping out whomever is merging, but it can be to a large detriment to the one merging. A little courtesy is actually better for both parties in the aggregate, but one party cannot fathom "losing" a bit to help out someone else.
