/var/log/boot will not help you find out if you are running from an 
initramfs, you can use "sudo dmesg | grep initram" for that. In my case 
that shows:  "[    0.554999] Trying to unpack rootfs image as initramfs..."

What is interesting from your boot log, is that you have /usr as part of 
the root filesystem, at least for this machine, so usrmerge shouldn't be 
a problem for this particular machine.  You have a separate /usr/local, 
but your usr seems to be part of /dev/nvme0n1p2

Check /etc/fstab  it should tell you if /usr is in a separate partition 
or not.  You might do this with:  "grep usr /etc/fstab | grep -v usr.local"
