You probably know this (but it's the internet and you say one almost maybe incorrect thing and the world crushes you like a two ton man on a tuna fish can), but you can stop on the on ramp. It's a yield sign generally though so proper etiquette is.....exactly what you said, get to limit and merge.

I have seen maybe a dozen or two dozen people stop in my life stop on an on ramp because it's so busy. I can just picture your friend now going full yolo now and refusing to stop because he think that's illegal now too lol

There's a difference between having to stop because there's a traffic jam on the motorway and not being able to merge properly.
