Yes I can, and have read the manual.. I realise what the Merge() node does.,
yes I know the MergeExpression(), I just need a fast pow(x,2)

Merge() is silly.. the operation should be named "multiply (positive
only)"..

in the help it should say "use another node for math" or "don't take the
operation literally"

:P
