Value calculated via workflow not saved in the field

🐞 bug report

If a workflow is triggered by an user and this user has "read only rights" on the field that is modified by the workflow, the field is not updated.

⁉️ Describe the bug

We have a few fields that we want to be populated ONLY via automatic calculation and they can never be modified by a person (while they should be read by the users). We have set permissions to "read only" via "profile" page in the settings and correctly the users can only see them in view mode (but not is edit mode). The user is allowed to trigger a workflow that modify them, based on a "starting date" the user can set. Unfortunately the calculation is added in the field only if triggered by admins but not by user.
I consider this a bug because I want the user to be able to "change" them always based on the parameter they can set. This is happening in both cases: the user trigger manually, the workflow is set to run "everytime the record is saved"

🔥 How to trigger the error

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to 'An Entity with a field AA that is "read only" for a user'
2. Click on 'the field AB that is triggering the workflow to change the field AA'
3. Be sure the workflow is triggered and/or trigger it manually. THen refresh the page
4. See error (the field AA is not updated)

👎 Actual Behavior

see above

👍 Expected Behavior

I expect the field to be updated

CANNOT TEST as I need a workflow to be set for this
