We all agree we want the feature branch incrementally merged sooner rather than later. IMHO any merge to trunk, and any rebase and squash of ninja-fix commits, deserves an invite to reviewers. Any notion of merge-then-review isn't our community precedent. I appreciate the desire to not "be left hanging" by creating a merge ticket that requires a reviewer when no reviewer shows. And the desire to move quickly on this. I don't object if you wish to use this thread as that review process. On the other hand, if you create the ticket I promise to be a reviewer of it, so as not to delay.
