"All the functions" - I guarantee you that almost any function you want in Excel is in Sheets. Just because you don't know how to use it or find it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. The only reason you know how to use Excel better is that you have past experience with it. That's, effectively, the sunken cost fallacy.

"size" - what?

"some of the external tools" - duh? But what on earth are using using "external tools" integrated to Excel for?

Off the top of my head: Operation Research... i.e. serious calculations to decide where to spend a lot of money, like: Where should I build my power station? I know, for this I will get my mixed integer programming suite out. Where is that in Google sheets???

// note, I adore Sheets, but it definitely definitely cannot compete with excel for serious computation suites or even modest visualisations.

The integrations in Excel are actually very important for power users. There's a reason Thinkcell can charge a couple hundred dollars per user.
