Other thing is, it's obvious that the perf on the web platform scales really bad compared to e.g. gnumeric. I can run the same sheet on a Pentium 3 when using gnumeric. Modern $1500 Skylake i5 ultrabook with 16GB of DDR4 has issues with performance even when the internet provides offers a 100M+ fibre. For example, when opening a sheet, it can take 6 seconds before the equations in the sheet get re-evaluated. When scrolling the sheet, it can be damn slow and unresponsive. With gnumeric no issues. Don't get me even started with RAM usage.
Native apps, yes, but they are either not truly cross-platform (a bunch of different applications), or to be cross-platform they suffer lower quality usually.
