a minimal example: value-result pairs ordered and disordered

I ran into a strange behaviour, when switch() gives "wrong data type" error on
reordering value-result pairs. I've found out that the value-result pairs shall
be ordered ascending in the switch function not to receive an error. Otherwise,
if the value-results pairs are disordered, some values are not recognised and
pairs with their result.

It gives hard time to order the values and not to receive a #value error, but
if it would be required, it shall be documented, too:
file:///C:/Program%20Files/LibreOffice/help/en-US/text/scalc/01/func_switch.html?DbPAR=CALC#bm_id571556244875552

Personally, I think the behaviour is a bug.
