There are many little things that just aren't available in Python-Excel libraries, that are available in VSTO. There are also odd little things that Python database libraries don't implement, like SqlClient.SqlBulkCopy. Native bulk inserting is generally unsupported on Python, so I either have to spit out a CSV and use bcp.exe to bulk insert, or I have to use TurbODBC, a Python library (which has certain limitations, like not supporting certain datatypes like VARCHAR(MAX) or GUIDs).
