I've never understood why people think that pair-merging prior to de novo assembly is a good idea. Seems like were that the case, assembly engines would just do pair-merging themselves prior to other assembly steps.

Merging PE reads before de novo RNA-Seq assembly
Hello!
can someone please give an opinion: does that make sense to merge PE reads before a de novo RNA-seq assembly (say with Trinity)?
Merging tools are quite fast (like USEARCH www.drive5.com/usearch/manual/merge_pair.html), and the amount of raw data is reduced drastically. Can merged data be suitable for further assembly in a “single-ends” mode, or am I missing some theory behind it?.. Seems like it may save a lot of computations.
Thanks in advance.
