I'm just guessing but maybe because one of the notes appears to be shared.  Are you sharing the note or is this a note that is being shared with you?  If you are trying to merge a note shared with you, I can see merge not being an option.  If they are duplicates, why not just delete one?

Yes. It has been shared with 2 people. But I got instructed to merge them. so I am looking for options. so, shared cannot be merged right?

The merge process, as I understand it (based on the Windows client), entails making a new note,  copying the selected notes in, potentially with separators, and then moving the selected notes to the Trash, leaving only the merge note. If you can't delete a shared note, then evidently you cannot use it in a merge operation.

Workaround: copy / paste.
