You should treat the spreadsheet as “read-only”. The soft-lock is a legacy thing. You should modify points with the edit sop. If I remember the soft-lock is from before the edit sop. I don't really think anyone actually professionally uses soft-lock - although I think you can even do point based animations with it.
There was a funny post by Symek on odforce or sidefx on softlocks a while back.

AlbinThat is because you've interrupted the flow-through nature of SOPs by hand-editing specific values. Thus that particular SOP is now holding precious data, which is what locked data is – it's modified in a non-procedural manner. Personally, for the rare cases where I do edit data with the spreadsheet, I usually write it out as a .bgeo and read it back in – that way I don't have to keep the data in the .hip file.
Hi.
When I move points with handles it's fine but if I try to enter specific values in spreadsheet the edit node goes in to soft lock state.What's the reason for this and can it be changed ?
Thanks…

i admit that editing through spreadsheet on Edit SOP should be logical and it should do it without locking
also there can be some Button on Edit SOP like Edit Spreadsheet or something
there can be also input for Position (world/local/…) not only for offset
you can post RFE if you wish this features
but for now the best way i can think of is
editing the spreadsheet resulting in softlock
then creating new Edit SOP based on difference between soft-locked node and its input
this Edit SOP can be created by hscript command “sopcreateedit”
then you'll end up with unlocked Edit SOP with your changes
