Yes, I see that.
I won't argue against the difference in favor of the Merlin at the 12 - 13 degree nulls. I will say that with a combined 2.5db difference we are very much short of a S-unit of measurable gain on the best of receivers. That is less than 1/2 S-unit of gain and only at that particular elevation. No big gains here either.

I can understand looking for the best figures from 0 - 30 degrees, but that one almost unmeasurable bit of less null will not account for even one half S-unit of difference.
