>> Would you or anyone care to comment on the expiration of the "non-standard" calls for the merged company of SIri/XM

I would if I knew anything about them, MJ. I don't follow Siri, XM, or their derivatives.

>> Is it logical to assume that once those non-standard calls all expire that the writing 'standard calls' would become profitable for Call writers?

In general, I'd think the non-standard calls and the standard calls would entail the same degree of risk and reward. The % return from a covered call play isn't dependent on the the number of shares in a contract.
