There's no upside. Tabs are common in real world data. If someone's csv library is naive enough to fail to quote a field with a comma it will also fail to quote

There's no upside. Tabs are common in real world data. If someone's csv library is naive enough to fail to quote a field with a comma it will also fail to quote a field with a tab. Changing the delimiter is just moving deck chairs around on the titanic.
