SmartWool and icebreaker have consistently come up repeatedly as some of the most durable and tumble dry safe

Seagale was my first thought too, but you’re right, they only have either a 100% option, or a technical (not blended)

hence discussion on which weaves are stronger (core spun) or blend materials are relevant

My post yesterday on merino generated a lot of interest and discussion, so clearly it’s you who are in the wrong. Users want long-life merino and are willing to pay the price.
A search of “merino” on the subreddit reveals regular and popular discussions on the topic; it clearly shows that quality of clothing is within the Overton window of discussion.
Go play policeman on those posts:

Generally merino is about owning fewer clothes which get used for much longer.
Regardless, searching “dress shirt merino 98% elastane 2%” doesn’t reveal much.
