Excel Lookup formulas are REDUNDANT! Use the intersect operator instead.

The intersect operator is a little known way you can lookup a cell or range of cells.

Excel Lookup formulas are redundant because the intersect operator can be used to achieve the same results. The intersect operator is a one-liner formula that can be used to quickly look up data from two or more tables. It is much easier to use and more efficient than using multiple lookup formulas. Additionally, the intersect operator is more versatile, allowing for multiple criteria to be specified and for more complex calculations.
