The page indicated for 7.2 will not be updated since the 7.2 or 7.3 branches translation cycle are closed (string freeze).

The fix will be available in 7.4 branch (AKA "master").

Please read the patch indicated above and you'll see your bug report is fixed.

You can keep an eye on the 7.4 Help page

https://help.libreoffice.org/7.4/en-US/text/scalc/guide/cell_enter.html#hd_id3583788

as it is updated manually.
