IMO Yield and Merge are two separate things. I agree with Jeff that the yield is for cross traffic. On a two lane road with one direction turning right and the other direction turning left, (both into the same road) it is (un)common knowledge round here that the right turn has right-of-way.
I do have a problem with people that try to block others from Merging (like on the interstate). Merge is different than Yield. The person coming up the on ramp has a right to get on the freeway. The person on the freeway MUST let them merge. Of course, the person coming up the ramp should have the courtesy to be traveling close to the freeway speed as well.
