sorted-merge-vs-hashmap-strategy

Status: IN

The repo demonstrates two distinct merge-by-key strategies: `merge-similar-items` uses `defaultdict(int)` when inputs are unsorted, while `merge-two-2d-arrays` uses a two-pointer merge when inputs are pre-sorted — the choice is driven by the sorted precondition.
