Maybe it is not a bug in 2022, but it soon will be. So there will be a moment
that we are forced to break the backwards compatibility in the next 8 years.

This transition should not be made for a fixed year. Wenn it was coded, it was
apparently seen as appropriate to have this transition a few decades in the
future. That is what it should be dynamically. That should be based on the year
a spread sheet was created, not to mess with existing documents.

Also for people not expecting this behaviour and accidentally creating big
problems (which will become more common as we near 2030), it would be good to
produce a warning when years from two different centuries are in a spreadsheet
while the date format specifies to format the year in two digits.

Thanks for the tip with the workaround. 

Changing the year in "Tools > Options > LibreOffice > General > Year (Two
Digits)" as suggested works as supposed when I click "OK". 

But clicking on the "Apply"-button is not working properly. The first click
sets the year back to the old value. The second click sets the year to the new
value.

LibreOffice is 11 years old.  The code it inherits from OpenOffice.org is even
older.  Recognizing two-digit year "30" as 1930 may seem counter-intuitive now,
it was probably rather intuitive 20 years ago.  And keeping backwards
compatibility is important.

If you want "30" to be recognized as 2030 for your personal use, there is an
option in "Tools > Options > LibreOffice > General > Year (Two Digits)" for
exactly this purpose.

=> NOTABUG
