I was unable to test this because I got a crash. I created a new report and put it in See also.
With 7.0.0b2 on Windows 10 Home 64-bit en-US with NVDA 2019.3.1 installed and sounding. No crash as for bug 132232 I confirm the format change for the cell applies with the <Ctrl>+1 'Format cells' dialog. But for the MM/DD format or the DD/MM format applied--the AT sounds the date as a full date -- MM/DD/YYYY (maybe as taken from locales 'Date acceptance paatterns'?). Other date formats are sounded as they are patterned, including YYYY-MM; and *all* including the MM/DD or DD/MM are identified as date formats to the AT. So, long and short of it there is no real issue here. The DD/MM or MM/DD are being passed as full format dates (the actual value held in the cell, not the formatting). And the AT is sounding what it receives. So, NOT A BUG, and not necessary to adjust as use case now is more helpful to AT. IMHO => WF
