The problem with a secret ballot is that it is as the name implies, a secret. That means as things stand, Merz wouldn't even know who he has to talk to in order to turn the votes around unless those who opposed owns up to it. And let's face it, that never happens in politics.
If they just go in blindly and he loses again, it would be extremely damaging to his and the coalition's position and credibility. The risk outweighs the reward in this case. As such, it would be prudent to hold it off for the time being.
As a reminder, a second vote can be called within the next 14 days now but the same ruling applies i.e. an absolute majority of 316 votes is needed to win.
If the second round of voting fails again, then a third round of voting must take place immediately. For that, only a relative majority i.e. candidate with the most votes, is needed to be elected as chancellor. But in this case, the president has the authority to not appoint said person to be chancellor and dissolve the Bundestag instead as an option.
