Let's not propogate speculation as information. There has been no official notice of EQM merging, so everyting who asks should be advised of that fact. When it comes to likely but unannounced benefits, your mileage may indeed vary.

Now, if you're asking what status you'd have after the programs are merged that's a completely different question...

OP appeared to specifically be asking about EQM and status, not RDM.
