Fedora 41 systemd tainted "unmerged-bin"

I just upgraded to Fedora 41 (still in beta if you read this at a later point in time), and after the process I ran systemctl status to check for any failed unit. The output says that the system is tainted by unmerged-bin reasons, which means that systemd 256 considers bad the fact that a computer has /usr/bin and /usr/sbin unmerged.

    State: running
    Units: 532 loaded (incl. loaded aliases)
     Jobs: 0 queued
   Failed: 0 units
    Since: Tue 2024-10-15 07:37:43 AEDT; 14min ago
  systemd: 256.7-1.fc41
  Tainted: unmerged-bin

I had thought that Fedora 41 was supposed to merge those two directories and have the second as a symlink or collection of the first.

My question is: is this going to happen in any of the next upgrades before the final release? Do I need to do a fresh install for that to be applied to my system?

At this point i think it is too late to do the merge for f41.
I know this is being worked on. I am expecting this to happen for f42.
