It's a bug! I have to contradict. Not because of MS Excels behaviour. 

But because of experience of life. In school we've had folding boards -
starting calculations on the one behind and going on with interim results 
(like SUBTOTAL) on the front one. Nowadays they might use Whiteboards,
copyboards or other electronic devices - but the strategiy is the same. 
You will transfer interim results to a new page and contionue calculating
without using terms of the deleted board again. 

It's a question of well-known usabillity!

Please give actual links - the published do not work. I'm very interestet in
seeing, how actual behaviour is deadly neccessary. I have an idea using this,
but i can create same results by simple using =A1&A2&A3 or CONCATENATE or
something like that. 

Only if the actual behaviour of merging cells is meaningfull and important,
LibO Calc needs a second Dialog "clear covered cells?".
