Yes, that's what I didn't do. 
If I skip "paste & set Column type to Date (YMD)" and just simply press OK o
Text Import, all is fine and format is Date YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM. 
But than title is wrong, simple text paste is OK, but the function "Column
type" is unclear. 
I don't see this as a bug because steps involve mutually unnecessary steps of
setting format to Date YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM and also setting Column type to Date
(YMD).

I'd rather turn this bug to Ducumentation to have explanation how this Column
type set works. And after that we may open a bug for correct behavior. 
I see there was help page on "Text Import" in offline help, but I can't find it
in online help. Help button on Text import doesn't work for me. 
I could find only
https://help.libreoffice.org/6.2/en-US/text/scalc/guide/csv_files.html which
doesn't explain options.
