As I suspect you are 'grouping' the sheets. The functionality has always
been that anything done on the 'edited' sheet was precisely 'mirrored' on
the other grouped sheets.

I think the model looks at the reasons that most people want to 'group'
sheets, which would be to set up identical sheets, say for months of the
year, etc. In this way all formula would point to the same cell and the
functionality would be ok as designed.

Am I missing something?
