There are some limitations to box/sprout that would remove some functionality from the module that some people might be using, including "no automatic column widths, no column number/string formatting)" as per the first link you provided.
We could provide the option to choose one of the engines, with the tradeoffs of each library. - 🇨🇦Canada kiwad
Not sure box/spout is still maintained, project is archived on github
Maybe fastexcelwriter ?
