This sounds a bit like Comic Book Guy. For every person who has the opinion that Excel is “so crappy” there are probably 100 like myself who place it in the highest category of application software quality, with applications like Gmail and Adobe After Effects. You can prepare a list of weaknesses of any of these, the same way you could write about all of the mistakes that Michael Jordan made in basketball games.

Accesibility has a quality all of it's own. Literally tens if not hundreds of millions of people can do computational tasks they otherwise would not be able to do.

Considering the "every(wo)man" approach it ability to be useful is near genius, but just because your volkswagon won't get you to mars, it doens't make it crap.
