If it is, I think it is a very welcoming innovation. I believe there are a lot of use cases in business that are currently under-engineered into Excel or over-engineered into complete web apps, SAP or salesforce applications.
BTW, it is a mystery to me why MS Access itself, that is still around, lost this post.

But because data modeling language underneath is so much more detailed and powerful, the default UI is also much more useful than what you get in Access or any other relational database. The basic target audience is similar, but Alan scales a lot better to more complicated applications. As you say, we see Excel being stretched to doing things it cannot do, and on the other hand custom apps being built for things that don't need to be so specific. There is a place for low code the way Outsystems does it for instance, but we believe a lot of businesses would be better served by something like we're offering here.
