That is because the arrayToDataTable method does not support the use of the
{v: value, f: "formatted value"} object. I have extrapolated that the
method derives the column types from the first row of data, and was not
written to handle object entry. Subsequent rows are likely added via the
addRows method (or something like it), thus the object entry works there.
If you want to enter your data like that, you will have to explicitly
define your DataTable columns and then use the addRows method.
