Hello,

I have always concerned myself that a table column formula returns what is 
expected.and is correct.

However I never paid attention to the echo area and I just noticed that it 
displays the following message

"cells in region copied, use M-x org-table-paste-rectangle to paste them in a 
table"
when I C-c C-c on the formula in the following table

| 1 |
| 2 |
| 3 |
|   |
#+tblfm: @>$>=vsum(@1..@>>)

The correct result is returned.

Have I been ignoring something for the past several years, i.e. has the above 
message always been displayed?

No, it was added recently:
