Ignore merge cell count #652

Closed tfussell closed 2 years ago

tfussell commented 2 years ago

Previously my philosophy had been to do what Excel does when parsing a document. Given the kinds of problems people are running into, I now think it's better to lean towards being more permissive with parsing. For this reason, I'm removing the logic to check merged cell count. Also count is optional which causes problems reading worksheets from other spreadsheet software.
