I need to really strongly disagree with this point. We're entering Year Two
of the temporary Google spreadsheet that was only meant to last a couple
months and is literally crumbling under the load we've put on it.

The old adage is really true, there is nothing quite so long lived as a
temporary solution.

Please take the time to do things properly instead of piling up crap that
just needs to get fixed later.

I think we as a company have maxed out our technical debt load and need to
pay it down sooner rather than later.
