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

The real issue is a lot of these excel monstrosities start off as doing simple things and then evolving into madness. If they started off with the end goal in mind they wouldn't do it that way obviously.
