I have just recently been struggling with this myself.  It seems a lot
depends on how the xlsx file was structured by its creator. As you know,
Excel does many things behind the scenes "for your convenience."

I had some success with the openxlsx package.

Early success is a terrible teacher. You’re essentially being rewarded
for a lack of preparation, so when you find yourself in a situation
where you must prepare, you can’t do it. You don’t know how.
