Mfs have been promising that functionality for like 10 years and now that they delivered is tied to their cloud service. To fucking late for me, im already using pd.read_excel() -> df.to_excel() as my workflow for almost everything.

I don’t know if it’s a blessing or a complete nightmare…

Well one thing we can all agree on: it is a blessing to non-working capitalists who own huge stakes of Microsoft.
Because this will require expensive per-seat subscriptions to their Power Platform or Azure Services. And if Power Platform is any indication, likely some features of Python will be gated behind per-use models on top of that.

No it’s not, it’s not in excel it’s in their cloud.
Libra has had ACTUAL python since before Microsoft decided to stop adding new features to office that weren’t rent seeking
