...and refreshingly so. You're getting rid of a social filter. People lie to your face all the time.
> No, you shouldn't assume stuff when you write comments.
You can't do anything without assumptions. I got an assumption wrong and you got offended? Not a problem for me, you're the one soliciting feedback after all.

Yes, everyone's out there hating on Javascript and shipping Electron apps at the same time. That doesn't necessarily negate my point. As you say, you built it for yourself first. You had ideas on how you want to do things. Those ideas inevitably conflict with how other programmers want to do things. There's a reason why there's a hundred Javascript frontend frameworks still coming out every month, even though we already have React as the de-facto standard. Getting traction in such a domain is incredibly difficult.

If that's what you mean, here's your N=1 statistic saying "people don't get your message".
> This is a straight consequence of how Excel was designed. There is a history of major financial fuck ups directly linked to excel mistakes.
There's a history of major fuck ups in ordinary programming languages as well. It's not obvious how your solution might prevent such mistakes, especially without introducing a whole class of new mistakes.
