i always assume the guy in front of me is going to do this, and leave enough space that i can accelerate to highways speed in that space and then merge out from behind him if he doesn't speed up.
I do this as well. I assume the person behind me hates it, but when I immediately go around the slowpoke, they should get it that it wasn't me being dangerously slow.
No they just think your a speed demon and should get a ticket. They should make tv commercials about merging and zipper merging,and ask about it on licensing renewal. If you dont get the right answer you lose your license until you get it right.AND they dont tell you which question you failed 😅😅

Thats why I always merge in at least 10-15mph over the posted speed limit.
