Thanks for sharing your learning that shows that drag & drop can be difficult to use. Your conclusion is good: offer alternatives and treat drag & drop as a pro user feature. Are you planning on adding Excel-like referencing by typing (

) too, or is that already possible?

I don't plan to allow users to type formulas by hand at least for now, the main idea of instadeq is that you can't get into bad states, the formula editor tries to achieve that for formulas by not allowing text formula input
