Both observations are not correct. Both applications indeed mark the
entire sheet A1:IV65536, which can be verified by scrolling to the
right/bottom, either using the scroll bars or mouse scrolling functions.

Memory exhaustion terminates the application. Calc would need a better
concept for identical mass data.

Yes, if you want row heights / column widths / cell attributes to apply
to an entire sheet. Probably not for pasting some "tech journalists'
test data".
