I create tables every day for run-of-the-mill stuff that simply doesn't need a database. No one has time for that.

It seems that your issue isn't the lack of tables in sheets but no easy way to create a simple db.

If we want to break Microsoft's monopoly than we can't do that by reimplementing Microsoft's monopolistic ecosystem. And that creates the opportunity to correct questionable and arbitrary Microsoft decisions.

People are used to MS Office now but so were they used to typewriters a few decades ago. And if we're changing OSes we don't have to stick to one office suite.
