Because ‘org-mode’ is included with Emacs, you might consider reporting
this behavior using M-x report-emacs-bug, either as a desired feature
for Emacs or as a mistake in how Emacs is working.  If it is the latter,
then consider looking at the Emacs user manual’s chapter on Org mode,
(info "(emacs) Org Mode"), and demonstrating how Emacs’s behavior does
not match the manual.
