Bit of a sweeping statement. If you mean Merlin has no autonomous ASuW strike/kill capability, I would wholeheartedly agree with you. If however you consider ASuW Scouting/Surveillance/Picture Compilation/ISTAR/TPT/OTHT or whatever we want to call it today, the Merlin with its Blue Kestrel, Orange Reaper, Wescam and Datalink is a force ASuW asset that is massively more capable than the Lynx HMA.
