There is a difference between straight text and spreadsheets. I also like notes, but numbers are just easier to process mentally in tabular form. If they weren't spreadsheets would have next to no value.

If I use a product and find it handy and convenient I'll remember to use it next time. Likewise, if I use a product and find it obtuse and makes a simple task harder than it needs to be, I'll remember not to use it next time.
