True. The problem is people share the bug tracking spreadsheet over email, and you have to find out the latest version from inbox. I still don't know what the best solution could be for both business people and IT people.
For word documents, I write in markdown and check in to git which allows me to compare the difference, etc. And I use pandoc when I distribute it as a proper document.
People do this in my company even despite us having SharePoint which has decent enough support for collaborative capabilities and should in theory get rid of any need for different document versions, but that escapes many people.
This seems like a conversation from 2010. I'm not saying that to insult, but it's literally the kind of conversation I was having in a corporate environment 10+ years ago.
Now, why can't you just share the link to the Excel spreadsheet and work collaboratively on the same document? If it's stored in SharePoint or OneDrive, this is trivial. There's a "Share" button in the top right corner, and you can do it from Windows Explorer as well. There's little value in emailing versions around anymore, particularly internally.
