I tried both screenshots you attached, and surprisingly, I couldn't check the
document structure ;)

Please provide the *document* (a database and the ODT), which allows others to
see it in action. It's not a matter of providing "proofs" (like in "don't you
believe me - I show you the screenshots!"), but a matter of seeing which OTF
markup results in which OOXML markup, with a way for tester to play with
different file formats (e.g., DOCX vs DOTX), see the difference, check the code
that writes specific XML elements...

And expecting testers to invent their own database and mail merge documents is
wrong, because the problem could e.g. be specific to some locales, or some
database types, or to an OS, etc.
