if gzdoom was to join another source port with features gzdoom doesn't have it could make a better port and make things get done faster

I Know Gzdoom is already the best source port but other ports have really cool features gzdoom doesn't

... and their code is so radically different that merging them is not an option. If it was that easy there wouldn't be any need for the current variety of source ports.

Exactly.

Anyone who attempts to merge ZDoom and Doomsday (for example of two polar opposites in many areas) can expect to spend the next 10 years doing so.

Besides, having a variety of sourceports each focusing on different areas is the spice of life.
