No Linux/OSS app can do this (and will likely never). Open Office devs have outright declared they won’t.
Or the automated process that export/import data via excel.
Let’s see you rebuild all those things, without man hours or errors. Costly errors.
Whenever someone gets on a “just switch” campaign (whether it’s something like Linux or Metric), I know they’ve never had to work on a migration project and seen the challenges, difficulties, and risk.
I use Linux for servers, but I’ll be damned if I’m gonna spend time converting my workstation - there’s zero value in it for me when I have decades of tools and process. The value proposition just isn’t there.
Don’t go taking down a fence until you fully understand what it’s for.
There’s a Linux app for that but the buttons are in different places
“There’s this obscure function in Excel that I know somebody who knows somebody who used it that won’t work in LibreOffice Calc”
I mean, you can keep putting up strawmen, but that is not going to convince anyone that Linux is superior.
Excel tables.

Fair enough. Excel is pretty complicated.
