It's a bug! I have to contradict. Not because of MS Excels behaviour. 

But because of experience of life. In school we've had folding boards -
starting calculations on the one behind and going on with interim results 
(like SUBTOTAL) on the front one. Nowadays they might use Whiteboards,
copyboards or other electronic devices - but the strategiy is the same. 
You will transfer interim results to a new page and contionue calculating
without using terms of the deleted board again. 

It's a question of well-known usabillity!

Please give actual links - the published do not work. I'm very interestet in
seeing, how actual behaviour is deadly neccessary. I have an idea using this,
but i can create same results by simple using =A1 or CONCATENATE or
something like that. 

Only if the actual behaviour of merging cells is meaningfull and important,
LibO Calc needs a second Dialog "clear covered cells?".

It is not a bug.

No one forces you to use that feature.

See the mentioned document in my comment #11.

LibreOffice is no clone of Excel. If Excel does not have an UI for this
feature, that is no reason to reduce LibreOffices capabilities.

Bug is still present in LibO 5.0.2.2 (with Win 7 prof 64 bit) 
as you can see by report #95338. 

In my opinion cells, wich are covered, should not be used in function/formula.
Result of LibO-calculation must be the same as by calculation in mind seein
some cells an some other not. And results should be the same when using MS
Excel ore other Soffice-software. 

I don't see any reason to keep LibO's actual behaviour. Is there any example
justifying this Point?
