--- Comment #4 from Colin <[email protected]> ---
If The range is created with the dates and CFed with the colour scale and a
cell is then inserted into the middle - it extends the range of the CF which is
what I would expect.

If I copy the last cell into the empty location with paste special it does
indeed conform to the three colour scale.

However, if I insert yet another cell directly above the first insertion (the
darkest green one) and copy the last cell into that location the new cell is
not CFed - The colour scale has been annulled but this annulment is not
reflected in the CF manager.

The CF manager now indicates that the singleton cell thus created has its own
scale format. The characteristics of this orphan format are identified as
identical to the surrounding range - from which the source was copied - but in
reality, no formatting is effected.

Surely this can't be right. The copied cell brought its own format which is the
range format in which it resides but the new cell is unformatted despite every
indication that it has been formatted.

The orphan together with the two non-contiguous ranges ineffectively overlap.

I think, if Excel is identical, then they both have an "interesting"
interpretation of this particular situation.

It's probably fair to say that moving things into and out of the defined CF
range adheres to the existing logic and mechanics of such an action and the
consequences of that action need to be better understood by users who may
intuitively believe the change wil aLways be what they are expecting rather
than the logical consequences of complex "follow me" processing.
