Excel already does this to a degree. If a cell has a formula that is inconsistent with its neighbors, it will be flagged. If a formula omits cells adjacent to the range it is working with, it will be flagged.

Check out Options: Formulas: Error checking rules. It's almost as if Microsoft has been continually developing this software for years and years and they have seen many common mistakes. ;)
