FP and SAMOP mean what? Your suggestion is to use a programming language to replace excel?
replyFP means functional programming and SAMOP means "simply a matter of programming" and the humour appears to be a Whoosh moment. Cell based spreadsheet programming is good, and should be portable. But people code to Microsoft bugs.
replySorry so many people making unrealistic solutions, I missed that this was humor.
replyThis would be an unmitigated disaster - most programmers have trouble with Haskell, I can’t imagine saying hey finance guys here’s an LLM and Haskell figure it out when they’re used to using a full on application with UX. It’s actually so crazy I feel like you’re joking.
replyUI is the entire point for an excel alternative, as I understand it.
replyThe computation side is trivial in comparison. But with AI, emulating the UI becomes far easier.

replyThat's like saying, "UI aside, a car is just wheels and an engine, so drivers should break out the welders instead of relying on big auto"
