Hi, The XLSXResponseWriter is part of extraction module, since it uses Apache POI which is already a Tika dependency, to construct Excel documents as response from Solr.
I propose to deprecate the component in 9.10 and remove it in 10.0. This is such an esoteric use case that it need not be part of Solr itself. Especially once Tika is removed as a dependency for Solr, this writer would require us to depend directly on Apache POI. Let those who care about this component maintain it outside of our project. I will provide a JIRA and PR for it, but want to highlight the proposal on-list as well. Let this matter be decided by lazy consensus, no need for a vote.
