--- Comment #1 from Mike Kaganski <[email protected]> ---
There's no "TSV" file type in LibreOffice. CSV is a common name for any
plain-text structured data imported into Calc, where import and export filter
may use different separator characters and other settings.

When you imported the tab-separated file, the import filter has saved the
settings used for its import, to keep on export. That is reasonable, since
*most of the time* users open files, make edits, and save, expecting the file
structure to be kept, just the data be changed according to the edits.

The use case that you describe is different, and it needs the export filter
settings to be changed. For that, Save As dialog, where you define the file
type, has "Edit filter settings" checkbox, checking which will open the filter
settings after you click Save. There you may define comma as separator, to
override the values stored from import.
