--- Comment #2 from Stéphane Guillou (stragu) <stephane.guillou at libreoffice.org> ---
This has been the case since OOo 3.3, so marking as inherited.

Editing a cell has its own undo stack, and exiting edit mode will take that
whole stack as one single change.

- Office.com and Google Sheets do the same as LO
- OnlyOffice can undo back to the overwritten contents (what OP wants)
- Gnumeric doesn't have an "in-cell" undo stack

Design team, should "Select cell > Type" give access to the same undo stack as
"Edit mode > Select all > Type"?
I think that could make things more consistent.
