#2This mostly facilitates nicely what players were already doing with api & data dump integrations. It greatly boosts accessibility though, which is great.
It just is so remarkable to me that no other games dare to have the depth & accessibility that EVE does. No one else has anything remotely as open ended as EVE Online's existing APIs or data dumps. It's shocking to me that games remain so quaintly isolated in their own world, that they don't seek to open up to allow more.

Not everyone wants to play a game where Excel is a requirement.

As a Path of Exile player (another high complexity game, with market forces but less political intrigue), I wish we had more open APIs!

I guess it's also true that not everyone wants to play a game where an Excel add-in is not available.
Please note, Excel is not a requirement to play EVE Online, it is only useful to have an add-in for some roles.
Further, for most popular games, Excel doesn't even make sense. Parent's request for more games to be more accessible to external tools like Excel is not a request to make Excel access your CoD game state, don't be dense.
