      Yup. And extra extra, excel can be beaten for specific examples with lots of extra tooling. But you know what that tooling will also do? Generate excel reports

        hmm generating static excel reports doesn’t sound bad, as long as these are used just as output format - basically a familiar GUI.

          Yeah, it is a good data dense gui, and is ubiquitous. But now it does python too! What a dreadful decision that was

        Generating a report using Excel as a format is a lot different from using Excel as a database.
