If you have the following scenario:

well, how about the following for your example:
- D = intercomm_merge (AB)
- E = intercomm_merge (AC)
- F = intercomm_create (DC, using E as bridge-communicator)
I had to think about this for quite a while before I understood it --
I initially assumed that "DC" was a typo and you really meant "DE".
But I eventually understood that "DC" is exactly what you meant and
that seems to adhere to the spec.
Yes, that's a clever solution. Good show!
