No there isnt a reason i can see why it shouldnt be there.
Here's a patch for that - https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/43339

I see paste special in both scenarios and only dont see it if the paste entry
is disabled.

Similar to Writer, it should be moved under a Styles submenu.

It is in its own section along with other column/row formatting options, which
arent available in the formatting cells dialog.

No it shouldn't as the cell management functions are of more priority for
row/column context menus. We do the same thing in writer, for a context menu of
a bullet list or table.
