Please see the attachments.

In MSO, addition on cells could be performed . Perhaps you are using the
sun(cellx:celly) function which as you correctly said, does not work. But I did
a simple cellx + celly addition which worked.

In MSOffice, the warning menu offers to convert the number formatted as text to
number. And that works very well. That is exactly What LO needs to have. If LO
can easily convert from text-formatted number to number, what else it does or
it does not do will not be very important.

In Calligra sheets, version 2.5.4, sum(cellx:celly) does not work as you
pointed out. But simple addition can be performed on the cells. Also,when
multiple cells are highlighted, on the bottom-LH, the sum of the cell contents
is correctly shown. Internally this display may be tied to simple addition,
rather than to sum(x:y) function.

Why, can't we have LO smarter than Calligra and MSO ?

PS : the status of bug seems to have been messed up by me.I have re-opened.
