That sounds like a reasonable approximation.  It's unlikely to be identical,
but likely to be fairly close.

We had a "mid-air collision" as we were both posting at the same time, and this
is what I was adding to our research during that collision:

Two new pieces of data crossed my path, including the fact that the LibreOffice
release dates I was referencing were technically "preliminary dates":

https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan/7.1

I also found a new piece of data that indicates one of the original files was
likely created on 2021 May 10.  That would suggest a slightly earlier
created-by version, such as 7.1.3 or 7.1.4.  What I don't know, and will never
be able to know (unless it is included in the ODS metadata by LibreOffice), is
if the original files were password protected, or if the password protection
was added with a later version of LibreOffice Calc.

Aside from this somewhat minor new details above, one must wonder what causes
the different experiences.  It could be the OS difference or another lower
level difference.

Did you get a chance to try the sample file that was attached to this bug
report?
