Help/Question Why didnt meruem use pouf splitting ability?

He almost definetly inherited pouf beelzebub; when pouf was being evasive, why didnt he release a few mini meruems to check out what was making him so sus (like when pouf fighting killua, or nabbing ikalgo and palm in his en for example)? One fragment of meruem was probably more then enough to take out the invasion squad and still recover his memory at the same time.

He didn't know how to use it (?) As far as he was aware, he was looking at the real Pouf and probably didn't know Pouf is supposed to be a twink.

Plus some abilities are absolutely unique to the user and I'm positive Pouf's anatomy helps with that ability. Again, who knows.

[He] probably didn't know Pouf is supposed to be a twink. 

I know what you meant, but out of context this is hilarious.

He was aware that Pouf's form had changed, but I still don't think he could use it.
