I see the need to use 101-111 for Subtotals; e.g. I want to ignore hidden
values.

But, I don't see why I want to use Subtotals 1-11, instead of using the
built-in functions like average, count, max etc. directly.

I do understand that if I use DataSubtotals, I can later modify the
Subtotals function which may have 1-11.

Please enlighten me. Why would I choose Subtotals 1-11 over a more direct
method? Am I missing something obvious?

Thanks.
