Aggregate data is all about simplification. Instead of staring at 10,000 rows of sales data, you sum it up by month or category. Saves time and helps with decision-making.
But like you said, it can mask problems. If sales drop in one region, the overall average might still look fine. Always slice and dice the data when needed.
For quick aggregation, Google Sheets or Airtable are pretty handy.
