It would be beneficial to incorporate features from Pivot tables that allow for the expansion and collapse of columns and hierarchical column groups within tabular visuals. This would not only solve the current limitations of matrices but also provide report creators with the flexibility to hide and show rows and columns, saving these settings for future use, thus eliminating the need to scroll through irrelevant data.

Same here... we discussed a case: Weeks in the columns and the possibility to +(show) the single days of only the last week.

Should be very handy.

Being able to collapse heading will allow for looking at 2 distant columns next to each other.

Exactly! The idea is that this feature is available for both rows and columns. It will help a lot in analyzing the information.
