Many times the spreadsheet is a collaborative document. One way to use spreadsheets is you use it for a number of iterations, get your outcome quickly, let stakeholders give feedback and adjust the approach. Then once it becomes stable, then you turn it into a database/app/script. Errors in spreadsheets are obvious to more users than errors in code because your work is shown, not hidden.
Taking a csv file and writing bash is not the answer. If you are doing that, you should probably get back to work/research.

One thing was that being so close to the edge means hard to shoot things that are headed for you.
I thought this was really well done, but I was a bit thrown to be blocked after 8 turns with the come back tomorrow thing.
If you want to build the app you want to use, go for it.
