In the end I do not think in these categories.

A few years ago all my own servers were OpenIndiana and maybe 40% of my users on Solaris. Now I am 100% on OmniOS beside a OI evaluation machine (and miss OI features and use cases) and maybe 10% of my users are left on Solaris with OI near to not relevant now.

OmniOS and OI are OpenSource. Why not take over this from OmniOS to keep them more in sync? On Linux Debian and Ubuntu are big enough to be independent while very similar. On Illumos everyone may be too small alone in the long run.

What you want is to make a OmniOS extra respoitory (git) with GUi packages. That would factually mean abandoning OI and the Goal of a General Purpose OS. That would be an acquisition not a merger.
