Thank you for reporting the bug.
it seems you're using an old version of LibreOffice.
Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest version of LibreOffice
from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ ?
I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to
'UNCONFIRMED' if the bug is still present in the latest version.

I test the bug in LibreOffice 6.3.3 and it still remain.

I think that bullets don't have their own size but inherit size of text. 
This behavior wouldn't surprise me, but in Impress is different from Writer.
So I'll tentatively put New, unless UX changes it.
Looks like inherited from OO, up to 6.5+.

Bullets in the attached file are defined with 75% (dots) and 45% (dashes). So the font size defines how large the dash become, which makes sense.
Direct formatting is kept until you change it back. Also expected, for example if you make something bold or smaller you want this formatting to remain.
So my take => NAB.

The correct workflow is to apply the formatting after content has been entered.
