Except merging things, and handling a lot of files...

There are lots of small things wrong with SVN. But it's indeed usable.

I'm aware of repos with a few million files in it that have been going since 2003 and not a single issue.

Merging things is different than in Git but it works. I use both, and I'm not religious about either, some things are easier in Git, some are easier in SVN. Git provides more footguns. And loads and points them too.
