During import the Report view displays a message about resetting the spreadsheet alias to point to the dd object.
This defined behaviour, understood. But, if there is an expression in a cell, the current result of the expression is added as a dd value and the expression is lost, again defined behaviour.
I also see that the spreadsheet cell can be changed to have a different expression after it has been copied to a dd object (I assume doing so means the dd object and spreadsheet cell no longer have any connection, other than the concatenated/capitalized dd object name) and the dd object can be updated to to an expression as well.
The docs have a caveat-emptor for the initial copy operation as does the warning during the import, so no problem. What I'm missing is the use case for copying the from the spreadsheet (especially with the expressions being lost).
