It really depends on how much time is spent filling out the spreadsheet.

If they are collectively spending 1hr/mo on the spreadsheet then it’s not worth an SWE’s time to optimize it. If they are spending 4hr/day on the spreadsheet then it’s a prime candidate for automation.

It depends sometimes it's currently 1hr/month but more frequently and a dashboard would add value to the enterprise.

In an interview setting this is such obvious bait to see if the person will ask more questions or go straight into making a solution.

That would be my assumption, too.
