Unabashed plug for GnuCash. It's FOSS, double-entry, and capable enough for oddball personal finances or business finance, with all the spreadsheet exporting one might need.

I'm struggling to understand this story.

I get the idea. But the way it was written has a "I heard from a guy who did a thing that looked like this..."

Maybe it's written that way to protect the privacy/trade secrets. But it also makes it hard to have any takeaways beyond why a dev team approved of pushing code like this to prod with minimal testing.
