I was so excited about Python in Excel, until it said "run in the cloud." There just doesn't seem to be any reason for this except to tie you into their cloud service. It feels so much like protecting me from unsafe printer ink.

I'm generally a fan of MS Office products and try to give them the benefit of the doubt.

Please help me think of a plausibly good reason for requiring Python to run in the cloud, that is not just about lock-in.
