### Structure and terminology preserved
- Sheet titles preserve exact IMF nomenclature: "Figure", "Box Figure", "Annex Figure", "Table of Contents", and "WHD REO (October 2021)".
- Numeric precision and formatting are preserved exactly as in the sample rows (including negative values, decimal precision, and date-time ISO strings).
- Labels and index conventions preserved exactly where provided: e.g., "(7-day moving average; as of September 29, 2021)", "(Index: February 2020 = 100; median)", "(Year-over-year percent change)", "(Percent of GDP)", "(Number of weeks)", "(Fourteen-day moving average)".

### Usage notes (data extraction guidance)
- Many worksheets contain mixed headers and multi-row labels (for example, descriptive titles in top rows and axis/legend labels next). Expect to parse out header rows before numeric series.
- Time series appear with multiple date formats: ISO timestamps such as "2020-01-01T00:00:00.000Z", quarter codes like "2020Q1", and month labels like "Jan-2019".
- Several worksheets include rich-text elements (superscripts and bold within labels); extract text content while preserving numeric values exactly.
