Well, just to ensure that we're talking about the same thing here:
That feature is not
needed if you want to merge topic maps. This feature is needed if you
want that topic A with the name "Darina" is merged with topic B which has
also the name "Darina". But that feature may cause trouble if you have
Paris Hilton and the city Paris in one map. Both topics may have a name
"Paris" and so Paris Hilton will be merged with the city.

(Generally, it would not be a big problem if Paris Hilton goes away, though. ;))

TopicMapSystemFactory tmSysFac; // Assumed to be there

tmSysFac.setProperty("tm4j.static.merge", "true");
