displayed incorrectly

Vertical RTL LibreOffice Writer template
When arbitrary Japanese text is pasted into a LibreOffice Writer document
configured for vertical right-to-left text, an intermittent problem occurs
where text is not displayed correctly. Specifically, two columns of text appear
to overlap. I have noticed a possible relationship with columns starting with
the "「" character.
I am not able to provide the data where I originally observed this bug, but I
have been able to reproduce the bug using text from a public-domain Japanese
text (source here: https://www.aozora.gr.jp/cards/000148/card790.html ).
### Steps to reproduce
1. Create a new LibreOffice document using the template attached
(genkoyoshi_bug_template.ott).
2. Copy the contents of the attached wagahai_neko.txt file.
3. Paste the contents of the file into the LibreOffice document.
4. Scroll to page 7. One of the columns appears to contain two columns of text,
which are overlapping each other (as in screenshot_after_copy.png)
Additionally, after saving the document file (attached as text_copied.odt) and
reopening it, page 7 still contains a column with two overlapping columns of
text, but in a slightly different place (as in screenshot_after_open.png).
### Environment
OS: Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS
LibreOffice 7.5.4.2 (installed via snap 'candidate' branch)
