Haha, imagine if the answer was grep. That would just be a mess, trying to search and merge at the same time. Paste is the clear winner here.

Cut and diff wouldn't be as efficient as paste for this task.

I think sort could also work well for merging sequentially corresponding lines.

Wait, is this a trick question? Wouldn't diff be used to compare the differences between input streams, not merge them? I'm gonna go with paste.

I was thinking cut, but that's more for extracting specific fields from each line. Paste is definitely the way to go for this question.

The paste utility seems like the obvious choice here. It's designed to merge corresponding lines from multiple input streams.

Diff is used to compare files line by line, it's not for merging lines.

Cut is used to select specific columns from a file, not to merge lines.

I think sort could also be used to merge lines, but it would not keep the corresponding lines together.
