On the contrary, you're invoking what - for novice users - is an arcane and
meaningless term.

Exactly. I understand it fine (although disagree with the implication), novice
users do not know what it is nor understand it. They see a selected chart.

Most of the bugs I've filed are about issues that LO has had forever; and that
"in all the years" the project has had a bug tracker - nobody had complained
about. Some of them are extremely high visibility bugs, like numbers being
rendered in the wrong language; and still noboody filed a bug. So, that
argument does not hold water.

> On the other hand you request a fundamental change.

First, it would be a change which does not hinder any other workflow, so you're
making it sound worse then it is.

Second, the fundamental change is just one of two options. I said: Either the
ability to delete, or a clear and unambiguous indication that it is not
possible to delete. The latter is not a fundamental change. (I prefer the first
option, but the second is quite acceptable.)
