--- Comment #2 from Regina Henschel <[email protected]> ---
The FORECAST.LINEAR function does not belong to the set specified in
OpenFormula. Instead it is COM.MICROSOFT.FORECAST.LINEAR. Thus the constraints
given in 6.18.28 FORECAST, part 4 ODF do not apply.

The naming COM.MICROSOFT.FORECAST.LINEAR indicates, that it was intended to be
used for exchange with Excel. Therefore it should behave the same as in Excel.

It is a missing implementation. The implementation maps it to the same function
as the ODFF function FORECAST. This mapping happens in
https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/sc/source/core/tool/interpr4.cxx?r=a0f3d71b69463eeca2716d49819733f02b81c8c3#4265

It was introduced in commit https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/20073.
