No problem. To a large extent, this issue is due to LO implementation details.
It's more difficult to explain without a common understanding of those details.

The ODF specification assigns certain Unicode code point ranges to Latin,
Asian, or Complex (ODF 1.3 Table 22). Many code points are left unassigned; for
these, handling is *implementation-defined*.

style:script-type should only apply to these *implementation-defined* code
points. It should not affect code points that are explicitly specified in the
standard.

This behavior differs from other proposals involving explicit language/script
settings, which should override handling of all code points.
