Is there a more valuable alternative to VBA?
VBA is a fine language for many Excel tasks and is unlikely to go away any time soon. In terms of alternatives though you might consider the .NET family of languages F# and C# and VB.NET that are used across the software development industry. I am designing an addin that tightly integrates F# as a scripting language to replace many of the capabilities of VBA as well as providing easier access to external data sources. You can check it out at https://www.sharpcells.com If you need to customise the ribbon you could also look at https://excel-dna.net/ which allows you to work with any .NET language with more ability to customise Excel but is not as tightly integrated.

ExcelDNA is an open source project that takes care of a lot of the complexity of the COM API and lets you use .Net for writing Excel Addins but not for other Office applications. Their latest versions should work with .Net 5+.

Creating an Excel Add-In in D
Yeah, it's practically archaeology now! It is very fast for doing some things, though.
If anyone's interested in it from a Dot Net perspective, ExcelDNA [0] was excellent when I used it a few years ago.
