We should steal ~~The Declaration of Independence~~ Microsoft Excel!

This has functionally already been done, its called LibreOffice Calc.

95% chance any business process that uses or touches Excel can be switched over to that with some minor tweaks, 5% chance someone might have to actually code some kind of custom API / batch file shim type thing, or its some stupidly niche situation where you truly are stuck paying your ~~liscensing fer~~ capitalism tithe to MSFT.
