Answer from David in private email:

"Hi LO Support, Thanks for following up.  I have found 'LO Help' rather
un-helpful when it comes to the details of particular features in Writer and
that is especially true for tables and field formulas.  Most of the
capabilities are not documented at all and the examples are inadequate.  I
ended up performing a number of google searches on specific features e.g.,
"LibreOffice Writer Formulas", "LibreOffice Writer Formula max",  etc. and
found some more helpful material on other sites: stackoverflow.com,
techrepublic.com, youtube.com, howtogeek.com, etc., and even
ask.libreoffice.org.  This enhancement request also implies an enhancement to
the documentation along with the implementation.  This enhancement request
would permit table and field formulas to update consistently throughout a
document by changing just a single value in either a table cell or a field.

Generally speaking, I have found the LO Writer table and field formula
capability rather poorly implemented, particularly when it comes to parsing
order of operations.  I have since found another example that I plan to
document in another bug report."
