Display Table ON always requires local csv? #95

Hi Jack - First I want to thank you for the amazing democratization efforts.

2nd, the ability to display table seems to require that an Options.csv file exist on the github repo and there appear to be several issues with that (#15 )

Why cant the default behavior be he table simply sourcing from the google sheet directly? This feature would align with overall UX of being simple and easy to use.

Thanks!

Thanks for your feedback, which I'll discuss with @ilyankou as we continue to improve the code. Our goal is to allow users to pull data from the Google Sheet template OR a series of CSV tables from that template, and we need to think more carefully about the default setting.
