>From my experience: The next to only reason for what users assume a function
SHEETNAME() to be needed (or is UDFed) is the the intention to use the
ADDRESS() function of which the OPTIONAL parameter "SHEET" only accepts names
and even converts numbers to "enapostrophed" text. The rtesulting address is
then generally used as the argument for INDIRECT().
If ADDRESS() also accepted a sheet number as returned by SHEET() and converted
it to the sheet's name for displaying the result, the problem would vanish.

Much better, of course, would be an enhanced OFFSET.aaa() function with a SHEET
argument used with NUMBERs (whether or not supporting cuboids).
