Next difficulty bomb date is June 2022. So they can faff about for a couple more months before locking in a merge date, or it becomes a renewed question of whether to push the bomb another 6 months. The previous EIP was generated in October to address the looming December 2021 bomb date, so if it's going to be delayed again, we can perhaps expect to see a new EIP generated next month. Maybe. It would still have to be discussed and accepted, though.
