Note that in the Find&Replace dialog the "Entire cells" checkbox _is_
already disabled when "Regular expressions" is enabled. So that point is
pointless ;-)


Regarding the general behavior of Calc's "whole cell" option in formula
calculation, it should not silently act different for different search
expression types. Doing so would just confuse the user, IMHO.

Additionally we'll have to take another aspect into account: the option
will also have an effect as soon as we implement the simple Excel
wildcards search, see issue 32344. This again, like the "no wildcard
/ regex at all" mode, needs the "whole cell" enabled to be compatible
with Excel.

Last but not least, changing the option to "automatically disabled when
regex is on" would break existing documents in case they rely on
a search not being successful if it doesn't match a cell.

Probably not, it even hinders compatibility if disabled.


Reassigning to Requirements / User Experience team for evaluation
whether removing the option altogether on the risk of breaking legacy
documents would be saleable. I doubt so. If at all, it should only be
done in a major release.
