In that VS because

I do not know when is better to use in that and when is better to use because.

1. The merit of the parent A's technique is found in that it maintains the flow of communication in the activity.

Q1) Would you use 'in that' instead of because? or you don't distinguish between the two in 1?

Q2) is in that used in formal conversation or written English?

A problem is that your sentence does not make sense with either conjunction. I have fixed it: 1. Parent A's technique has merit in that / because it maintains the flow of communication in the activity.
