Why DIY data science?

“Python in Excel is intended to empower everyone (and we mean everyone now that we also have Copilot in Excel with Python) to do data analysis in an easy, secure, and compliant way.”

-Keyur Patel, Principal Program Manager at Microsoft

BUT, there's just one big problem with this vision:
