I should point out that I didn't select any text when I set the 400 point
size.  If I select text then set the point size, the text selected does
change size, and I can click into that area and retain size, etc.

Yes, I saved and re-opened the file without issue.

That depends.  If the OP is setting point size w/o any text selection
and clicking back into the document, I'm not surprised that font
settings are, seemingly, lost.  Why?  Because I find it's very hard to
click in exactly the right spot to hit the cursor at the new font size
delimiting point.  However, extracting the content.xml part of the
saved .odt file shows that the font and size are set, but contain no
text.  At least, that's what I think it's showing.
