Great to see people trying to ingest such humanly crafted horror data. However, whenever I encounter this with a customer, I’ll take the challenge, show how much a burden it is to manage and how much more it will cost in the long run to maintain in the event the tiny bit of metadata would change inadvertently. Usually, the customer is listening then for some guidance on how to (not) format spreadsheets and use them as clean db tables. Then you got clean data easily ingestible. And the customer knows a thing or two about data management. Win-win for everyone.
