You have disabled auto-recalculation for the spreadsheet (Data→Calculate→AutoCalculate). In this case, when you copy across columns, the calculated value is copied along; when you copy across rows, the stored value is not retained (this has something to do with Calc internal units being columns, not rows). But recalculation for the new places does not happen in all cases.

Recalculate manually (F9), or enable AutpCalculation.

Closing NOTABUG. Please feel free to put back to UNCONFIRMED if you believe it's incorrect; please don'r forget to comment why you think so.

Sorry about this. Is it possible that AutoCalculate got turned off by itself during a crash/recovery?

Well - possibly. In the end, that was a crash = unexpected and wrong behavior...
