If I'm not mistaken, the merged commands are stored as a single op-code entity (in most cases a single byte). The assembly of the instruction from the key code sequence as well as the disassembly into keystrokes for display are separate steps. That is the reason why a 97 can execute programs from the 67 read in from cards. The op-codes are not related to the keystrokes required to enter them.
