This is more of a UI bug. When selecting "default" format for cells, the term
"default" is taken by users to mean "default for the type I specified" (i.e. if
the cell is a date, it should be "default date format for my country).
Unfortunately, in a spreadsheet, "default" simply means "number, integer". So
the "Default formatting" option should be called "Reset to default spreadsheet
format : integer number".

There is no silver bullet. Date operations are made on integers. Not 2
individuals will agree on what is a default format for a date depending on what
type of use for that date they want.
