Damn, Vegeta just can’t catch a break.
It's actually been set up that he CAN'T do Ultra Instinct. He could barely maintain Sign for the early part of the fight. Merus specifically said he couldn't go past that either, so him doing it now would just be a get out of jail free card like fusion would be.
Kami was once one with King Piccolo. This is Piccolo Jr, remember.Could he, though? Perhaps Nail, but Kami and Piccolo are a single being who split in two, not different people fused together.
Limits can be overcome, though. Way back when the Saiyans invaded, King Kai specifically warned Goku not to go above double power when using the Kaioken, and he went up to quadruple power. As trite and overused as it can seem, it's a staple of the genre that you set limits just so it's more dramatic when the protagonists break them.
ETA: That said, I *don't* think he'll pull off a complete form of Ultra Instinct, not just yet. I think they'll save it for a later situation.
Piccolo is still King Piccolo Daimaoh for all intents and purposes, though. It's the reason why Kami didn't fade away after King Piccolo was killed, for instance, and why Piccolo explicitly says he's not "Piccolo" anymore after they merge, he's just a Namekian who forgot his name.Kami was once one with King Piccolo. This is Piccolo Jr, remember.
That said, if Vegeta *can* split Piccolo from Nail and / or Kami, the fact that Piccolo doesn't take him up on this offer makes him seem monstrous.

I mean, the new Piccolo is his own being -- like Vegito. So it doesn't necessarily make sense for him to want to get split up, because that's essentially letting himself die.
But I can't get excited over this arc, UI or not, I sleep. Moro had potential, but it didn't go anywhere.
He never sleeps. He never dies.
Battle doesn't need a purpose; the battle is its own purpose. You don't ask why a plague spreads or a field burns. Don't ask why I fight.
Probably wouldn't do anything except weaken Piccolo. The Yardrats seemed to imply that those who had died because of Moro won't be revived just because their energy is released unless somehow their body were still in liveable condition.
Yes, but Nail's body wasn't left out to rot or anything of the sort, it became a part of Piccolo. Wouldn't splitting him from Piccolo just reform his body, too?

I like their criteria for this list.
Spoiler:
I expected this to be higher on the list because of how drastic the transformation is.
Spoiler:
Someone pointed it out in the comments, but this form has never won a single fight in the canon, which is a shame.
Spoiler:
Super Saiyan 3 is my favourite of the Super Saiyan forms. It just looks so savage, so animalistic! And I do appreciate that it comes with a drawback.
I was wondering how they would go about doing this, and they decided to include just the one.
Spoiler:
If they were only going to include one of Freeza's forms - and I understand why they would, though I'd argue Golden Freeza deserved a spot on the list -, it makes sense to pick his final transformation. Personally, though, my favourite transformation from one of Freeza's Species (does it have a canon name?), and probably of the whole series, is Cooler's fourth transformation.
Also, Mecha Freeza's design sucks ass.
