The expectation is wrong. The tool "Autofit text" belongs to the ODF attribute
"style:shrink-to-fit"[1]. It changes the font size, not the shape size.

The property you are looking for is the setting "Fit width to text" and "Fit
height to text". These are in the text attributes properties of the shape.
