Yes. But, why does Continue previous numbering not work?

Good question. It's not clear to me, how this command should work at all. Therefore I've opened bug 140579.

This is not really a duplicate because these are already the same list.

"Continue Numbering" has now changed to "Add to List". Since it is already the same list, that therefore does nothing.

Since they are already on the same list, I don't see it making any sense to turn off "Restart Numbering" just because you have chosen "Add to List". So I'm marking this as NOTABUG.
