Suppose that you wanted to make projected estimates, based on statistics that are of interest over intervals of your own interest.

Suppose that automated input was not a key goal. That manual input of data values derived from external sources, was entirely acceptable.

Suppose that variables that seem likely to influence the numbers, are of interest to your study.

Lots of independent information could be of interest to someone, not to mention the "educational" value of the exercise itself.

You could use excel (Libre Office etc) data and copy paste into a connected calculator or use the Emulator
Also Mac spreadsheet & Emu works. (Linux?)
You do not need to key to n a lot of data
(so that when the last number is double checked the next results are already in => start over)
