Description

How can I append next row without downloading entire table?
AFAIK google api allows this via spreadsheets.values.append
But with this module the only thing that works for me now is

const [rows, info] = await sheet.receive();
sheet.add({
	[info.nextRow]: [['data']],
});
await sheet.send();

This downloads entire table and becoming slower and slower...

Research direction

Start by tracing the receive, add, and send entry points used in the example and compare them with the Google Sheets spreadsheets.values.append operation. Done means a row can be appended without downloading the entire table, while preserving the module's existing editing behavior.
