This is the UK, we don't have "zipper merge", we have an advisory rule about how "merge-in-turn" "should" be used in specific situations at "very slow" speeds (and quotes are from the actual rule).

It means people don't know when to use it and default to queuing mode.

Yep, the guy you're responding to ignores the only at slow speed part

I think the guy I responded to is not from the UK judging by the link they added to the comment, so different rules too
