Offline use is a good point. I wouldn’t want to try and use google sheets in some kind of sandboxed scenario.
If google would release a local server I could run of google apps I’d love it. But any desktop version of the same I wouldn’t trust. I’d still want to access them via browser.
Not because of bad actors but just because of bugs in deployment of two different architectures for the same app.
The issue I have with online spreadsheet is that browsers are generally not allowed to access the local filesystem through scripts. For good reasons no doubt, but when that’s what I need to do, then it just won’t work.
I prefer google docs because it’s accessible through a browser wherever I want.
You can use cryptdrive, it’s on par with google docs spreadsheet.
Is it better than google docs spreadsheet?
Try it, it is free. It is the online implementation of OnlyOffice
MS Office 365 is also fully functional in a browser these days.
Personally I prefer the offline version for various reasons.
