According to the EW interview with Jeff for this week he said that they already planned when to Merge and the number of finalists/Jury members during the start. Therefore, I conclude they would've Merged at 12 castaways, but have the 1st Merge boot not go to the Jury (see Corinne in .). Lindsey just "sped up" the process.
