Crashes due to opening Excel while using QS sound frustrating, I hope that this issue can be resolved.
In the meantime, have you considered working around the issue via trigger scope? Designating the scope of a trigger can disable or enable it while using specific applications. It is also possible to introduce multiple options for keybinds to activate Quicksilver, by adding custom triggers, each with their own scope.
the invocation trigger clashed directly with an Excel default. I changed it, but QS still crashes - even more of anything, without Excel opening! Even more confusing because on my second laptop, this never happens.
Seems to have eventually been this, correct?

Looks like a trigger/command issue that needs sorting.
@DaveEveritt -- your recent edit makes it look like this is still happeneing. Is that the case?
What version of Excel are you using? I don't have Excel - is the free trial version of Microsoft 365 https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/excel similar to what you're using?
I haven't gotten a reply, so I'm closing this as dead. Please feel free to let me know if I should re-open.

Sorry I missed this - was moving over to newer machines. Excel under Silicon M2 is fine and I haven’t encountered it again on my laptop with the older processor, after MS updated Excel. Will re-open if it returns.
The
ctrl-space
key combination is now an (annoyingly uneditable) key combination in Excel. It causes Quicksilver (2.4.0) to crash when Excel is the active application. However, finding a memorable alternative toctrl-space
that some other app or the OS X doesn't use is proving difficult.Worse, even just opening Excel causes Quicksilver to freeze:
