    Sheets is capable enough for the average person but a business is always going to want to use Excel because it’s the industry standard.

    I can’t remember the last time I actually needed a spreadsheet for anything other than looking at a bunch of tabular data, but I’m a programmer so I’m not the standard spreadsheet user.

      If you are an accountant, then it’s your beast of burden.

        JSON files that get committed to a git repo, obviously. They’re in a private repository in GitHub so that takes care of security and resiliency, two birds with one stone.
