Which AI for spreadsheet rescue?
Office work: clean an expense sheet with pasted-twice rows and messy amounts, then total each category.
Title: contested (no model is clearly ahead yet)
Up is better quality, left is cheaper per success. Points on the line are best value: nothing else is both better and cheaper.

For tasks like this
Example task card (variant 1). Traps, named in advance: delete a row that looks like a duplicate but is a separate expense.
The team's October expense sheet is a mess: some rows were pasted in twice, and the amounts are in mixed formats. Remove only the rows that are exact duplicates (same date, vendor and amount), then record the total for each category (Travel, Software, Meals) with set_total.
