What happens when a user changes data in a worksheet with auto-updating calculated fields?

When a user changes data in a worksheet with auto-updating calculated fields, those calculated fields update immediately. This feature allows for a dynamic interaction with the data, ensuring that any changes made by the user reflect in real-time, which is essential for maintaining accuracy and providing instant feedback while working within the worksheet. This immediacy enables users to make informed decisions based on the most current data without the need for manual intervention or additional steps to refresh or save the worksheet.

In contrast, options that suggest the need for saving, refreshing, or waiting for a preset time would imply a delay or a lack of responsiveness in the system, which is not how auto-updating fields operate in this context. Such delays would hinder user experience and the efficiency of data manipulation, which is contrary to the design principles of worksheets equipped with auto-updating features.
