I thought setting a column to string only was already possible.
It is, I’ve used that to prevent automatic removal of leading zeroes when reading the values of bytes.
Based on the article it seems like it’s just a matter of not having to spend the time (and mental overhead) of doing that for all required columns and never slipping up on it (now just set and forget).
So did i. Format cell(s) > data type (or something) then just seleect text, or custom or whatever.
