So yes, the problem is the page break explicitly set for the very first
paragraph (on DOCX import). Although not shown on your screencast (where you
did it wrong when selected the first line *up to start of the second* when
opened paragraph properties - try not selecting anything, and just put cursor
to first line when opening paragraph properties).

I'm still unsure if this is a bug, since Word has no notion of page styles (it
only applies page settings through direct formatting of section properties), so
LibreOffice has to map these section properties to auto-generated page  styles,
and only in most  simple cases, where only one section is present in the
document, could it in principle avoid applying the page break with page style.

Another way to reproduce would be this:
1. Create new test document.
2. Add lorem<newline>ipsum<newline>
3. Apply another page style (e.g., double-click at "First page" at Stylist's
page styles; no need to be at the first paragraph at this stage!)
4. Try copying first paragraph to the end (as in your step 5).

Step 3 applies page break with page style to the first paragraph; it's only not
needed on the very first paragraph of the document when no custom styles are
set (Default page style is used).
