The questioner asks: Is scholarly disagreement a mercy, as we hear?
Answer:
Who said it is a mercy? Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) says:[Hud 11:118-119] He excepted from those who differed those whom your Lord had shown mercy to. This indicates that mercy lies in agreement and unity, not in disagreement. They will continue to differ, except for those whom your Lord has shown mercy to. Yes.
