Something just occurred to me.
The alliance between the left and left-libertarians on cultural issues (as personified by the Sarvis campaign in Virginia back in 2014) can only be temporary.
The present thinking of the left (re gay marriage and abortion esp) happen to coincide with the thinking of left-libertarians, but the left is always pushing further leftward, whereas the left-libertarians are anchored by their belief in equality under the law (which the insane race/gender politics on the far left violate). The left-libertarians will wake up one day surprised to find themselves on the right. Though they'd still be to the left of right-libertarians, both would be on the same side of the larger social/political divide, which would affect a merger.
