Hello Roger and John.
I did not write exactly what the s1p files are, sorry.
short.s1p open.s1p = These are the cable measurement files with calibration in the NanoVNA-App application. These are the results of the calibrated cable measurements. Here there should be a point to the left or right of the Smith chart and not what it is.
The other files are calibration files:
5mRG223_2.cal = saved calibration to file in NanoVNA-App
5mRG223_2 load.s1p 5mRG223_2 open.s1p 5mRG223_2 short.s1p = extracted s1p from calibration file 5mRG223_2.cal
In the NanoVNA-Saver application there is no problem, the results are as they should be. I performed the calibration in the same way as in the NanoVNA-App.
I attach the files from NanoVNA-Saver.
short-saver.s1p open-saver.s1p = measurement files.
savercal.cal = saved calibration file.

NanoVNA-Saver works ok in my opinion, while something is wrong with NanoVNA-App. Or I'm doing something wrong there.
I prefer in using NanoVNA-App, so I would prefer that everything is correct there in App.
(i missed attachment before)
John, yes, i'm shorting it exactly the same in the calibration and for the plots i sent. My cable is an extension cord, it has a male connector on one side and a female connector on the other. I did not use a barrel adapter.
