    I’ve always done this with any browser and pasted in Excel, Calc or Sheets and it has worked without Alt. What does alt do?

      Sometimes the webpage will select a bunch of stuff outside the table as well as a bunch of extra lines and spaces that you have to rearrange.

      Not all websites do it, but for the ones that do, this trick can save several minutes of fixing.
