Interesting.
As you say, and as written in `hg help mergetools`,

::::    "internal:fail"
::::      Rather than attempting to merge files that were modified on both
::::      branches, it marks them as unresolved. The resolve command must
be used
::::      to resolve these conflicts.

it makes no difference between files which have conflicts
and files that would merge peacefully (say, because the edits on the two
sides
were far apart).
