       @foone You've reminded me of the form agnostic word processor/spreadsheet/presentation DIY concepts of the late 80s amd early 90s.  Imma go mourn their loss over a coffee.

       @foone Hmmmm.... I've been discussing the notion of a 3-axis joystick for working with 3D graphics, sounds like something your spreadsheet would want!

       @foone I experienced so many emotions after reading this that my wife noticed, and so I told her and she proceeded to experience emotions (she loves spreadsheets).

       @foone in Battlestar Galactica they always had a notch at the top of their rectangular media, and it made me wonder if their way of drawing grids was different too.

       @foone Back in the 70s when spreadsheets were Research, people proposed cells you could rotate in at least three dimensions. So the cell you could see in the grid was the result of a whole other dimensional slice of spreadsheet, and you could select the cell and convolve the dimension that produced it into visibility.Given how spreadsheets are actually used (functional programming), I think that model would be a big help, but no one seems to have wanted to dig it out of the history of ideas.

       @foone then you'll need a dedicated keyboard for it https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d2dc6df0c51af000126cfe1/1624289698619-ZNDAWK52NP2OIO5M4CTV/Lumatone-Angle-1i.jpg?format=2500w

       @foone How would you specify coordinates for formulas? Letter/number is nice and simple, and I suspect letter/number/unholy-glyph-from-before-time will confuse most users.
