There is something to pay attention to :
Merlin is a grand servant not a candidate like gilgames
Merlin is a confirmed grand servant by "nasu kinoko" and the writers crew at type-moon in Fate/Garnd order material book IV published (31/12/2017)
Even though merlin is a confirmed grand aervant but he never shown up in a grand saint graph ever
and solomon is still a grand
lemme explains : the solomon we follows romani archaman is a normal caster summoned by marisbury animusphere used his ring as a catalyst and won fuyuki holy grail in one night and built chaldea using the money from the grail
solomon wished to be a human nd moments before his power stripped away
he saw the future where humanity is destroyed
solomon sacrificed himself at the end of solomon to destroy goetia's 2nd level planet class (1 level below beast VI/S draco from FGO arcade) similar to how musashi used her saint graph to the point removing herself from the throne of heroes
at no point did solomon removing his grand title (orion_romulus-quinirus
first hassan sabah discarded their title and grand seat in exchange for power for the tasks as a bonus
prototype merlin also discarded her grand seat in FGO arcade and his saint graph is a normal caster so solomon is still a grand but if needed
(located in last singularity of FGO)
merlin can be his replacement
