I didn't see that, I'll mark as a dupe. I did search for it, but I guess my
search parameters were wrong because I didn't find anything similar.

IMHO, the present implementation of table "styles" (they are not style in the
usual LO sense) are faulty.

>From experiment (no developer, therefore never read a page of code), it looks
like selecting a table "style" launches a macro which will direct format all
cells.

This conflicts with the style formatting recommendation because the macro is
rerun in various circumstances. You can launch it by double-clicking on a style
name in the style sidepane or by adding/deleting rows and columns.

If you had styled your cells, the macro direct formatting will remove or
override your carefully tuned styling. Note that the same is true and even
worse if you direct formatted your cells/table: everything is replaced by the
macro direct formatting.

I would not call it a bug but a misconception of what should be a true table
style. My idea of a table style is the possibility to apply the
Table>Properties settings through a style. This would not impact cell styling.

The present feature is both behind this concept (you can't change padding
around the table, its text flow properties or size/alignment -- in short the
layout -- with a current "style") and beyond it because it allows to alternate
row/column formatting (such as background colour or font colour) and other
"embellishments" which are not part of the structure. And its worst
inconvenient is to use direct formatting (but what else could be used) which
ruins well design style format.

I would recommend not to use the feature if table contents are to be styled. At
least until the feature has sufficiently evolved to be useful to power
"typographers".

An example of complaint is as at
