This is why I specified “nearly” the worst. It can absolutely get the job done and has basically every tool you’d need to do the job, but it’s pretty much the worst amongst the “this will do everything you need” options.

My thought process was abacus < pen & paper < text file < spreadsheet < database solutions

It was only a matter of time until the kings of human misery came out with one.

You could run empires on the back of a spreadsheet.

You absolutely shouldn’t, it’s nearly the worst option you have available, but you could.
