I disagree, if by reporting you mean the functions on attributes (sums, etc....) that are standard in sql databases and are just not implemented in UR. They don't divert, in fact, I think they are sth basic ... see for example InfoQube

2. In the search results window, set the columns you need in the report (Only need to do this once)
3. In the search results window, select all using 'Control A'
4. Copy grid values using 'Control Shift C'
5. Paste into excel.

1., 2. is one-time procedure. 3,4,5, is a few seconds combination of keypresses. I believe one could use one of the Macro softwares that would do most of the things you are suggesting.
I would much more prefer the calculation on attributes inside UR, and it's already on the Roadmap ...
