No offense, but if you think collecting 10 R3s is hard, I advise you to keep playing for a few more episodes. I have literally thousands of medals, and I've only been playing for a couple of events. I retired the last R3 from my deck in this event, and I've probably used each of the original R3s as upgrade material a dozen times over.

If you'd make that combiner among the most powerful cards in the game, you had better pack a lunch because I'll have a deck full of them. Making it a single slot permanent card means you'd need to scale it down to a decent R4, and balance the game around someone having them in every slot. Which basically means you'd be going to all that trouble for a card that's roughly as strong as a raid card. Not exactly exciting, IMO.
