--- Comment #7 from Eike Rathke <erack at redhat.com> ---
Calc is not filling a calculated series when dragging down formulas, it's like
copy&paste instead. That's also how other major spreadsheet implementations
work. In the attached example, as only J8 is chosen as endpoint, it's the same
as copy-pasting J6 to J8. It becomes clearer when drag filling J6:J7 down until
J9, then J8:J9 are a copy-paste of J6:J7 with keeping the relative references
(and thus making them point to 2 rows below). There is no calculation of
relative differences between two selected formulas, and there shouldn't be as
it would be utterly confusing. Furthermore things would get unpredictable if a
third cell was selected that again differs from the previous difference, or if
formula cells were "incompatibly" different.
