Excel is the fucking backbone of Microsoft Office. It’s solid and backwards compatible for a couple of decades. Excel is the one reason business sticks with Office. It never fails, everyone knows it, nothing can replace it. You cannot trust any other spreadsheet to perfectly translate if you move away from Excel. The world runs on Excel.
I never imagined Microsoft would fuck with Excel. Ever. There’s a fairy tale about killing the golden goose, can’t remember how it goes.

It’s about time all those math types learned to relax a bit. These numbers in these spreadsheets don’t need to be exact all the time. It’s really more about the overall flavor of the spreadsheet than how “right” any individual field is. Error bars are there for a reason people!
