Sure! Basically, certain formulas in excel affect more than one cell. For example, there is a function called "sequence". "=SEQUENCE(5)" puts a 1 in the cell where it is, a 2 in the cell below, 3 below that etc. up to 5. I.e. it "spills" out of its cell.

I mostly use this feature when A) designing spreadsheets where I need to update the number of rows of data during operation, or where the number of rows is truly dynamic (a real example is a sheet that goes through my asset purchases and bundles them into buy-sell chunks for tax) B) Where I want to do anything with filters that excel doesn't have by default - since one of the spill-enabled functions is "FILTER"

I know the 'right' way to perform these tasks is with an actual programming language but I want to be able to share these sheets with others and have them be vaguely happy to have them.

I just need spill ranges from excel before I can fully ditch the microsoft office suite, so many of my spreadsheets rely on them.

Is there anywhere or any way you can recommend to get rid of US politics in my feed? Seems like theres a lot of that (I don't mind a little but not every second post)

 

Is there anything to go off - any dev comments, leaks etc.? Or is it just "a year-ish from 1.21"

I watched all the supercuts and I believe it was legitimate. A truly fantastic series and I highly recommend you give it a go.
