--- Comment #10 from Eike Rathke <erack at redhat.com> ---
Much writing without focusing on the real problem and the twisted setup.
So to recap:
* the system locale is en-US
* the LibreOffice locale is set to en-ZA
  which has a default date format of YY/MM/DD
* manual date acceptance patterns: Y-M-D;D/M;D/M/Y

I tried that and the input of 18-3-23 perfectly yields the date 18/03/23

However, in your sample document all cells are hard formatted to the number
format locale en-GB (English (UK), which internally has date acceptance
patterns D/M/Y;D/M;D-M that might be related), tried also that and then indeed
18-3-23 is not accepted as date.

Are you actively trying to confuse Calc's date input?
