As someone who has excel open all-day every-day: I don't think excel-employees are "producing" data. We are ingesting CSVs/XLSXs, performing modeling/analysis, and then saving as an XLSX.

I don't know anyone who is saving a CSV unless it is the final model output and another system (e.g. TM1) can only ingest the CSV.

If I accidentally save a spreadsheet as a CSV it is a bad day since I probably lost all my formatting, formulas, and additional tabs.
