Because that this happening makes no sense.

A (editeng) shape can have text in Writer, and a Writer textframe can have text
and complex contents: paragraph styles, bullets+numbering, images, tables,
charts, change tracking, etc. I heard the whole point of inventing it was to
have these on shapes.

A Writer textframe can be added to a shape with the context menu, when I'd
expect to have the former text transferred from the shape to the textframe.
Otherwise the previous text is mostly hidden from editing by the new textframe,
which is rather confusing.

Also: don't even try to save this mess in attachment #166033 to docx format ;).
