Example file from Word 2016

Attached document contains a paragraph with a field and a simple page break before it.
This page break is missing when opened in Writer and the number of pages is one less than needed.

1. Open attached document
-> only 2 pages instead of 3, the first page contains the paragraph that has a mail merge field.

Why would that be so? This is a bibisected RTF-specific bug. That does not seem like something remotely related to RTF.
