I think you are on track - IF - the merged steps were all multiple keystrokes that would take > 1 unmerged step.

STO 4 is one step on the HP 25 but two on the SR-56.

What Jim Davidson found after analyzing a lot of pretty amazing HP 25 programs was that on average, there were about 1.6-1.7 keys per step, so that 50 merged was equivalent to about 80-85 steps on the SR-56.

Jim Davidson had said that 95% of the time, 100 unmerged steps was better than 50 merged ones.
