The sub’s implosion was probably Clippy’s fault
Excel is one of those tools that punches way above its weight class. Which is why it’s so common to see in places where it should have been replaced by a proper database years ago.
Worked for multiple Fortune 500s, the world is held together by Cobol and Excel. If Excel were to stop working, the world would collapse.
I worked for a major investment bank and one of their exotics trading teams was basically all add-ons and stuff built on top of Excel.
To be fair, the traders looked like Wizards using it, it was pretty neat.
