--- Comment #4 from Eike Rathke <erack at redhat.com> ---
Turns out all cases mentioned above either were other bugs that meanwhile are
fixed already, or in the case of bug 60718 for the actual file in question
Excel stored wrong result values to the file (which then of course are updated
with the correct values when recalculated). However, the latter seems to be an
exceptional case and whatever bug of Excel beyond our control and most likely
the user wouldn't be aware of the problem either. Being asked every time to
recalculate when loading an Excel file (or files not stored by LibreOffice)
until disabled is a rather poor user experience. If there arise other
(non-)recalculation problems they'll probably indicate individual problems that
shouldn't be addressed by a "hit everything and all with a big hard
recalculation club" but solved individually instead.

I agree that improving help with bug 107930 could raise awareness of the
concept of recalculation.
