Question: RE: LieDerivative

Hello there, 

Is there any chance to ask this one question?

The attached (following) worksheet shows the result of LieDerivative operation, which is not correct. 

The correct answer is given in the image in the middle of the worksheet. Is there any particular reason regarding Maple's way of conducting the operation in that way?
