Curious:
How many levels of indirection from end users do you need to be, in order to consider installing an arcane linux tool and then launching `protoc --decode_raw < message.bin` from the command line an acceptable drop-in replacement for CSVs?
I'll take the generous interpretation and assume OP meant some very specific developer use-cases :)
