Got it. (Bit late, to be honest, but I think I've reasons to forgive myself for
that ;) ) Thanks for you patience!
I think the reason is clear: formula content of cells has to be evaluated on
opening the document.

Test: 
 - create old settings
 - open your file 
   > all as it was
 - change settings

So I guess this can be achieved: if Number Recognition is off, the other two
should not be evaluated. Not sure if it's easy (*). 
  ( @devs: any code pointers of where to look? )

If it won't be picked up (by me - agenda :( - or someone else) to change that,
I tend to say that the disadvantage of changing older files puts in more weight
than the advantage of a more logic default setting.

*) not to mention another possibility of storing table data on saving, as is
done with spreadsheets.
