The configuration value for merging the JavaScript files has no effect.

- Goto
Backend > Stores > Configuration > Advanced > Developer > JavaScript Settingsand setMerge JavaScript FilestoYes - Click "Save Config"
- Refresh all Caches
- Goto the homepage and observe the number of JS requests in your browsers' network tab

You will see the number of requests reduced when Magento is in production mode.

Merge JavaScript Files to Yes currently merges only js files added to <head> explicitly.
You can open page source (Ctrl+U). And find that instead of several files (../requirejs/require.js, ../mage/requirejs/mixins.js, ../requirejs-config.js) you have something like static/_cache/merged/26a...e.js.
If you want to reduce number of request to different static files try to set
Enable Javascript Bundling to Yes and setup Magento mode to production.
