Summary: PrediCalc adds logical constraints and omnidirectional propagation to spreadsheets, enabling constraint-driven recalculation beyond rules. Tolerates inconsist inconsist? to reveal outcomes, not repairs; uses structured cell names for table-like querying. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
