Another document exhibiting the problem

Yes, in my 1st novel, in this size, if I fix the header on p15 it breaks the
header on p20, and when I fix the header on p20 it then breaks the header on
p15.  So it is impossible for me to generate a correct text.

If I go to p20, when it's in error (shows the text that should appear for a
/right/ page, though says it's header style is Header Left), if I just double
click on Header Left in the Styles and Formatting menu, its italicisation
changes to Regular (which is the style for a left page).  And if I make no
other corrections to it, and scroll back to p15, the header text has changed to
style Header Left too (even though it's a right page), and the italicisation is
that of a left page, though its text hasn't changed.

And if I don't change the header style to the correct style for that page
(Header Left for left pages, or Header Right for right), and change the text
anyway, then it changes the header text of the mystically-linked pages to use
that header text and style.

It's like a subset of the pages are linked together and are being forced to be
treated all as the same left or right kinds of pages, regardless of the true
left or right nature of those pages.  So if I change any of the
mysteriously-linked pages, they all change.

It's sounding to me like the documents have become corrupted, if so, and I'm at
a loss as to what I might do to fix them.  Save it as a Word file (.docx?
.xml?), or save it as unified office type (.uot), or flat XML odt format
(.fodt?)?  Any suggestions?

I will attach an obfuscated copy of my 1st novel, that I've been describing in
this comment.  The file is WildThing-CS-4x7obfus.odt.  The pages I noted as
having errors in the headers are:

15, 289, 67, 79, 87, 117, 119, 123, 133, 143, 159, 183, 187, 195, 219, 245,
251, 259, 261, 271, 313,323, 355, 359.

All odd numbers, come to think of it.  But when I started correcting them, I
found that just in doing the first couple, pages 20 and 34 had newly broken; so
I think there are both odd and even pages "mysteriously linked", but it's
tricky to find out which pages they are.  Certainly, pages 15 and 20 are linked
in this mysterious way.
