Problem

The type definition does not look at the deep parameter. It always assumes it's false.

$ merge({"x": {"a": 1}},{"x": {"b": 2}}, false)
{ "x": { "b": 2 } }

$ type_def(merge({"x": {"a": 1}},{"x": {"b": 2}}, false))
{ "object": { "x": { "object": { "b": { "integer": true } } } } }

$ merge({"x": {"a": 1}},{"x": {"b": 2}}, true)
{ "x": { "a": 1, "b": 2 } }

$ type_def(merge({"x": {"a": 1}},{"x": {"b": 2}}, true))
{ "object": { "x": { "object": { "b": { "integer": true } } } } }
