No need to use the tutorials to reproduce it. Just create two shapes and group them. Then it's a bit difficult to change the stroke width with the arrows, and when typing the value directly in the box, the change is applied but the box value is reset to 0.

Nothing wrong here, as long as the circles are not grouped.

When using %, the unit is also reset to px (even if it was set to another unit before). If I don't apply the % value and change the unit again, Inkscape applied a 0 width stroke.
Note that I sometimes need to select % twice before it is selected.

Changed in inkscape:
