Perl: "There is more than one way to do it."
Some ways Excel lets you organize data: (1) chaotically on one worksheet, (2) with different data sets in different worksheets, (3) in tables (http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/excel-help/overview-of-excel-tables-HA010048546.aspx http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/excel-help/overview-of-exc...).
Python: "There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it."
Perhaps Excel/Perl*Python wouldn't have any of Excel's organization tools exactly but would instead have only independent tables that could be made larger and smaller as needed.
Edit after reading some comment about databases:
Perhaps this program would be a front-end of sorts for databases or could act as one. That might be unrelated to the Perl/Python difference, but it could be a useful feature.
