If you're going to do complex data analysis, isn't it a pain to use ANY spreadsheet software, no matter how good? I do mine as a Jupyter notebook. The spreadsheet is just for looking at the numbers, maybe sorting some things.

Excel is definitely not useless! Learning a little Python (especially the pandas package) can go a long way in making data analysis easier though
