In fact, no. It only works "as expected" when the cell is *focused* (i.e., when
you click on it, and it receives the bold border showing focus, but not filling
showing selection). But *selecting* this single cell (e.g., starting selection
from this cell, extending to a neighbor, and then moving the mouse back to B1
to only have a single cell selected) shows the same behavior (Bold not applied
to the contents of the cell).

And the reason for the difference is that applying a property to *cells
selection* only applies it to cell level; while applying it to a focused cell
in the absence of selection *additionally* goes inside the cell, and for each
span inside the cell, also resets the direct formatting related to this
property. This is similar to Writer's relations between Paragraph-level and
Character-level direct formatting, with character-level one taking precedence.

Not a bug IMO.
