user-facing. the problem i am trying to solve is essentially that i am generating a spreadsheet of mappings that a user to edit, but the number of rows can multiply combinatorially based on user-specified modifiers, and i'm not sure how to handle this in a way that doesn't blow up the spreadsheet.

based on this description alone i'm feeling like adding a more specified layer on top of the rather generic thing i am currently calling "modifier" right now could help; the internal representation is too general to expose in a structured way! might post about this more later if i can nail down the problem but even thinking through it this much was helpful enough for me to feel unblocked haha
