Have you thought carefully about this? What does it mean to call a piece of software that solves a real problem you have in your life "slop"?

It's the same thing as looking down your nose at people who use Excel as a database because it's not a "real" database.

Yes, I'm sure we all have horror stories about spreadsheets that got out of hand, but that ignores the thousands (or more) spreadsheets that are silently productive everyday.
