See original comments below, first.  I have a video file, just too big to
attach (235MB as an MP4 file).  Please email me if you have any questions. 
Thanks!

In the LibreOffice Online Help, the list of shortcuts located here:

https://help.libreoffice.org/6.4/en-US/text/shared/04/01010000.html?&DbPAR=WRITER&System=WIN

Had the following information:

Ctrl+Y     Redoes last action.
Ctrl+Shift+Y     Repeats last command.

I tried using CTRL Shift Y the second time around, and it worked.  I'm not sure
of the difference between the two commands (redo vs. repeat), but even the
functional definitions seem a little vague as to the differences.  For example,
on the following pages, the current instruction reads as:

(Redo)
https://help.libreoffice.org/6.4/en-US/text/shared/01/02020000.html?&DbPAR=WRITER&System=WIN
"Redo
Reverses the action of the last Undo command. To select the Undo step that you
want to reverse, click the arrow next to the Redo icon on the Standard bar."

(Repeat)
https://help.libreoffice.org/6.4/en-US/text/shared/01/02030000.html?&DbPAR=WRITER&System=WIN
"Repeat
Repeats the last command. This command is available in Writer and Calc."

Maybe some examples to the documentation could be of use (e.g., when to use
"Redo" vs. "Repeat").  Also, if you compare the two definitions from the latter
part of this additional comment to the hotkey definitions, they are slightly
different...I did a bit of searching trying to find a definition of action and
definition of command, and came up blank.  Just wondering if there's a reason
why CTRL-Y can't have some more functions added to the "Redo", or if there are
things that both "Redo" and "Repeat" can and can't do between the two...

Might be being a bit too rhetorical / expansive in my thinking for what may not
be a bug but a "human performance error" or maybe it is an opportunity for
improvement in Calc.  I leave that in your capable hands.  :)

Just a suggestion...
