Basically, merging is always implied (that is meant by "merged semantics"). So most functions - like "area" - will internally merge and cache the merged version. This way, "area" computes the area with overlaps removed.
If you explicitly need to merge, you can do:
two-layer merge: `layer1 | layer2" or "layer1.or(layer2)"

Hi Bian,

If you explicitly need to merge, you can do:
layer.merged
