What it does mean is that Merida isn't a draw, like Elsa and Anna and that means they had even less reasons in a business sense to bring her in. They brought Frozen in to draw in the views and they di so for Brave, but Frozen did so temporarily and over a time period decreasing, while Merida didn't help at all.
