As the project's code is modified to function on each OS--knowing the OS and
Desktop environment (where applicable) helps us to confirm and reproduce
issues. And importantly to identify where/when in the source things change.

Yes looks like "Inherited from OOo" is correct. The word lists provided for
Chinese in stc_char.dic and stc_word.dic have received little adjustment since
OOo era. One of the original design documents from 2004 for function of the
tool is attached.
Line 1176 of the stc_char.dic holds the pán entries for 盘 (U+76d8) and 槃
(U+69c3)
What is unclear in the source is the relation between the single character
conversion, and the bound form/word listing. Also, the syntax of the character
and word list is a little unclear.
niè 涅 (U+6d85), or more correctly nièpán 涅槃 has no entry in either the
character or the word list--so IIUC the single replacement occurs. But it looks
like it may be as simple as adding the literary and liturgical terms to the
stc_word.dic with matching simplified and traditional values--as a "place
holder"--to ensure that single character substitution does not occur. Of course
there would be an upper limit to what the word table could hold.

Certainly.
