In columnview mode the estimate is calculated[1] but the dynamic block doesn’t 
get updated.

I did some bisecting and the last version where both column view and dynamic 
block were working is:

Merge branch 'maint'    1aeb958e5       Marco Wahl <marcowahls...@gmail.com>    
12.02.2017, 09:19

In

Use Org duration library        7e8cf5f4c       Nicolas Goaziou 
<m...@nicolasgoaziou.fr>        13.02.2017, 14:41

neither column view nor dynamic block is working.



For the column view this was fixed in:

Merge branch 'maint'    2f200f50d       Bastien <b...@gnu.org>  03.05.2021, 
15:59

(But I don’t understand how this fixes the problem.)

For the dynamic block the updating does not work.
Since this was broken for 4 years I think no-one uses it.

[1] The „est+“  function only adds integers and doesn’t work with times like 
0:15.
This is to be expected since it is a „+“ function, otherwise it would be „est:“.
One could argue that an „est:“ function would be more appropriate, 
but since no-one seems to use this feature, I’m not the one to argue that.

Maybe a note in the documentation would be sufficient:

Note that this is a =+= function that adds numbers, not a =:= which handles 
times.

Do you want a patch for that?

Greetings
Axel
