Depends on what you want to do. If you're looking at extending SM beyond SM+15 then you're going to need to implement some extrapolation anyway, and most of the systems follow the standard progressions. In my spreadsheet I used formulas to fill out most of the information in a giant table, then replaced the formulas with the values.
It's not a huge issue to just follow the standard progressions; it's mainly an issue because you need to be able to introduce some systems at some SM's that don't follow the standard progressions, or that have their own progressions.
Incidentally, all of the information from the systems tables in Spaceships (and several other books) is already laid out in my spreadsheet. There's no need for you to go about recreating most of that work.
