Why would you think mergers suddenly start happening all of the time? We see them happening all the time simply because we can now detect them. It's like Antarctica, which was discovered some time in the 1800s. Now when people visit Antarctica they always see penguins living there. Would you ask why penguins suddenly started living in Antarctica once people discovered Antarctica? Of course not! Penguins lived there all along. It was that nobody knew about penguins living there because they had no way of knowing about them before discovery. When Antarctica was discovered, people then knew about the resident penguins. It's the same as black hole mergers. Apparently they've been happening all along, but before LIGO there was just no way of knowing about mergers. Now that there are LIGO detectors, we can detect all the mergers.
