My only complaint is the blinding white cells. There's a reason why like every other major program uses dark mode.

Excel doesn't have dark mode? That's literally incredible.

Not by default, and if you use it all the formatting (cell colors, borders, etc) doesn't work well anymore. Done up sheets with good formatting are unreadable, unless you're already very familiar with them.

I used to change the blinding white to a light grey, but it doesn't jive with the border colors and on large sheets it adds to the file size quite substantially.

Well, it's an awful lot of extra grey pixels to store...

Formatting data is extra data. Try it yourself on a large sheet.
