Public bug reported:

When saving a LibreOffice Calc file that contains a chart, Nautilus
interpret the modified file as a new file and moves it to the default
location on the desktop. This prevents retaining the position of the
file.

Repro steps:
1. Download the provided LibreOffice Calc file on the desktop.
2. Move it to some random position that is not the default position
3. Open the file in LibreOffice Calc
4. Save the file

Observe that the position of the file will move on the desktop. It
should not.
