Much as I love org-mode tables, I'd say the only axis where an org table is more feature rich is the formula support. Visidata is an amazing multitool for exploring tabular data that supports many data sources. From an ergonomic perspective, visidata wins.
This lacks formulas?
If anyone is interested i can recomment org-mode tables which looks more feature rich than visidata: https://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-spreadsheet-intro...

It can do the first example on that page at least.
It calls them derived columns and you can use python to combine and process other columns.

This is awesome
not a spreadsheet
... because?
it doesn't allow formulas in cells. everything is a table with rows and columns.
