Yea CSV is famously bespoke, I don’t know if it’s ever been standardized? In my experience, each implementation is more or less unique. Even if you allow escaping, different formats permit different methods of escaping and you might have to account for each! shudders It’s much easier to support that in python than it is in awk with regexp. The awk route will eventually make you a regexp wizard, though, which confers it’s own benefits. :)
