      I don't think the sets should generally be merged completely, but

When I see a picture in the alternate set which seems to fit for
the standard set I usually shift it over. But this happens very rarely
because the different drawing styles and perspectives simply don't mix.
Sometimes I even prefer a rather ugly (xpm-scaled-up) picture over
a picture that is a little bit nicer but in different style/perspective.
That's because the "ugly" picture kinda implies that it is yet to
be redrawn, and sometimes people feel an urge to do so.
The "nicer" picture with wrong style confuses players as they think it
is a legitime part of the set. Besides, it looks a lot worse when put
in between pictures with contrare style.
