Since debootstrap 1.0.102, merged-/usr installs are the default, except when
installing blacklisted suites. The blacklist was established in
https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/debootstrap/commit/4a1b3ca, whose
commit message says:
Set non merged-usr release
We do not apply merged-usr until Debian stretch and Ubuntu cosmic.
However, the actual blacklist is (from scripts/gutsy):
case "$CODENAME" in
…|quantal|raring|saucy|utopic|vivid|wily|yakkety|zesty|artful|bionic|cosmic)
Note that trusty and xenial are missing. This causes their installation to
fail due to file conflicts in certain packages.
My speculation is that the omission was due to a copy-paste error from line 4
of scripts/gutsy.

Subject: [PATCH] Added trusty and xenial to merged-/usr blacklist
The blacklist should include all Ubuntu releases up to cosmic.
