There's a reason for that: many of the relic weapons are known to have copies in existence. For example, Gae Bolgs are made by Ishgardian crasftsmen, Bravuras were made by Hellsguard craftsmen before they died out, and Sphairai were given to monks who mastered the coeurl combat style.

There's no indication that the two guns that Merlwyb uses are more-or-less mass-produced and she's still alive, so it's not like we're going to be recovering hers and restoring them (as is the case with the Thyrus, which belonged to A-Towa-Cant, and the Veil of Wiyu, which belonged to Wiyu), and she doesn't seem like the kind of person willing to just let us make copies of her weapons.
