Combining these organizations may be near impossible,
In the sense of two organizations agreeably coming together to pool their resources in an effort to make a single org that is greater than the sum of its parts, I'd have to agree with you.
But consider if DSC folds or becomes a fraction of the size it is now, this combining of the two may be exactly what we're seeing the first steps of at this moment in time. If this downfall of DSC transpires as is being predicted here in this thread, hunting is not coming to an end as a result. There will still be hunters and specifically international hunting.
SCI may end up picking up many of the broken DSC pieces and itself grow as a result. If this happens I hope that SCI will learn not only from the missteps of DSC's of the last few years but also from the good that DSC has done for conservation and deserves much credit for.
