Not certain this is a bug or just a limitation, possibly one worthy of a feature request. However, I confirmed the reported behavior in 7.1.6.2, specifically: Version: 7.1.6.2 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 0e133318fcee89abacd6a7d077e292f1145735c3 CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.4; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded
That is how HYPERLINK() was specified and also works in Excel. See also https://www.openoffice.org/specs/calc/compatibility/HyperLinkFunction.sxw Yes it's crap, blame Excel. But also, one can't make only part of a formula result clickable. Wontfix.
