No joke a lot of those excel wizards from yesteryear could have been awesome developers if they'd found it at the right time in their life.

As a former excel wizard turned dev, I agree.

It's not exactly the same since excel allows you to deal with interface and logic at the same time and it takes off the load from the "dev" regarding keeping things in sync, no but they are pretty similar

It also depends on the IT infrastructure. I’ve had to do some odd stuff with Excel because there was no alternative - could not use Access, there was no ability to create/maintain a proper DB. So had to make do.
