They did put their differences aside to fuse into Vegito to face Merged Zamasu because the stakes were way too high for either one of them to handle alone. Remember that they made it clear during Resurrection F/Golden Frieza Saga that they would rather fight alone without helping each other due to their pride. Who better to show Jiren that trusting each other and what it means to draw strength from a desire to protect something other than yourself than Goku and Vegeta? Jiren does not trust anyone except for himself and his own belief in absolute power standing above all. However, I think the meaning behind the battle would be even greater than the fight itself. Yes, I am certain that we would see very powerful attacks and fight sequences. If done right, I believe this would have been one of the most epic battles of the entire franchise. With both warriors barely able to stand, they refused to surrender considering Vegeta’s promise to Cabba and Goku’s resolve to avenge 17. Heck, Goku even organized a coordinated attack with 17 and Vegeta and that still wasn’t enough! They tried a Spirit Bomb, Kaio Ken times 20, Ultra Instinct Omen, Final Flash, Limit-Breaker Vegeta, etc. The Saiyans pulled out all the stops to defeat the powerful alien of Universe 11. 17’s sacrifice to buy the Saiyans sometime for them to recover some stamina would have been the trigger for them to fuse. In the last episode, Vegeta said that he was willing to do whatever it took to defeat Jiren. Goku and Vegeta fusing now would seem appropriate instead of being nothing more than mere fan service like it was during the Zamasu/Goku Black arc or at the end of GT. However, I think the change in tone of the final battle between Universes 7 and 11 has given me a new perspective about fusion. I felt like the Tournament of Power had already handed out enough transformations, power-ups, fusion (Kefla and the Universe 6 Namekians). Yes, this went for both Gogeta (Fusion Dance) and Vegito (Potara Earrings). I am not sure if this was already mentioned in one of my previous blogs, but I was originally against the idea of Goku and Vegeta fusing during the Tournament of Power.
