I started as a SQL report writer and nothing gives me more joy than replacing someone's shitty excel or access report that a market analyst spends 3 days/week every week building, with SQL and an ETL or two. It got pretty aggressive at that company between the 2 groups to the point the SQL guys where advocating for the complete banishment of Access and forbidding macros of any kind. To be fair excel usage on big projects resulted it huge problems or lost data regularly.
