I have those 249 chaff and 1 main fleet on a planet in Year 1.
I have to merge them all into the lowest existing fleet number.

The opponent will target that lowest fleet number (the chaff) but when he engages me next turn (Year 2), he'll be hitting my main fleet.

If I understand your process correctly you are advocating chaff sweeping that ends with the battle fleet merging with the lowest number chaff at the end of the move. If my understanding is correct, then I believe that this will not work.

1) I calculate the number of chaff needed to sweep the MF to the target.
2) I create a fleet of that number of chaff and send it to the target and then Split All so that all chaff are in fleets of 1.
3) I then make sure that my battle fleet, also moving to the target, has a higher fleet number than all the chaff so that all the chaff move, and impact mines, before my battle fleet.
4) IF I than give the battle fleet merge orders with the lowest numbered chaff I think that I'm likely as not to end up at a piece of salvage in deep space rather than the target since I'm hoping that my chaff get blown up in the MF.

Am I incorrect about this? Will the battle fleet move to the target instead of to the salvage? Even if so, my battle fleet will not be able to merge with the lowest numbered chaff because that fleet number no longer exists and so my battle fleet will still have its high fleet number.

As has been noted by others, the fix to this is to have your sweeper chaff to all go beyond the target rather than to the target.
