Ah, yes. I kind of looked over that engine. Oops...
I overlooked it mostly because the Merlin engine uses RP-1, and therefore has limited reuse life due to soot buildup in the engine (unless they've solved that problem). I also suspect that the Merlin engine only has limited time left as (when) SpaceX transitions to Starship.
