Doesn’t excel allow using any data source for the data? So you can e.g populate a table from a web service/database etc?

The thing with excel is that it’s repl-like and lets you sketch up a solution. If users could build more data driven apps (I don’t doubt it’s possible but it should be easy) like those Access popularized then you could start off using sketch data and finish with using a “single source of truth”.
