Agreed on all your comments and just added that I actually wanted to punch Merlin when he said that Arthur would probably hang him if he knew about the magic.
And I think that comes directly from the writers. It`s their excuse of "keeping the magic secret". They have not thought it through how that makes the characters look or how it makes no sense anymore at this point in the show.
Then again, those are the same people who actually repeat Morgana`s claim in interviews that "Gwen stole her crown". Because they seriously seem too damn daft to realize that Arthur wears the crown Morgana wants.
You know, I think a lot of TV writers are willfully blind or stubborn (in their Mary Sue crushes) or even mean-spirited but I`m not sure I ever found a bunch I considered to be literally stupid.
