According to many comments, the US government DOES use SQL, and Musk is not understanding much what's going on.
The excel file contains the data. It's equivalent to the database.
The excel program is how you interact with the data. SQL is how you interact with databases.
Doesn't matter how the data is structured inside the database. You can ask in the SQL language and you will receive an SQL answer.
