I think I saw somewhere that they cannot merge into Voltron Wolf anymore, because he's the one who died, and he was the one that was technically the Alpha (they killed their former Alpha while merged). That would make sense on several levels. One, Jeff has an FX budget to watch out for and their mergers were probably a drain on it. Two, it would allow for more independent character development if Aiden and Ethan were not so closely connected. Three, and most importantly, you never want to overshadow your protagonist if possible. I have long suspected that was why Derek was such a lame Alpha. The writers didn't want him to come across as better and cooler than Scott.
