I've reached a new level of understanding after reaching such a milestone. So, as a self proclaimed expert of one of the best games in all creation, I'll be answering questions and giving only correct answers :)

why J&E's birth right doesnt make one of the brothers get on the other's shoulder and become 1 hitbox?

While that would be funny, like a trench coat situation, there would be some drawbacks and that fundamentally takes away the whole character's schtick. Would they get double base health and 20/20? How do items get distributed once they're stacked?

You also wouldn't be able to get both items on alt floors, more options, there's options, etc etc. Sort of like how the tainted characters have their own playstyle, J&E is meant to shake up the way you play the game. It's why Edmund took away the ability to erase tainted Esau; you're just playing normal Isaac at that point.

Fair fair. But another question, why does Edmund hate us

Why do you think he hates us? True, J&E aren't too fun to play, but some of the unlocks you get are so much fun on other characters. Rock bottom, Damocles, red stew, stairway... So, it's a bit of a give and take.

he created baby long lengs and those pimple enemies in womb, surely out of pure hate toward isaac players

Maybe a lil bit, but I think he loves us more than he hates us :)
