Not sure about Calc, but 'modern' Excel doesn't even seem to be able to deal with text (UTF-8) in CSV properly : https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25015679

- ojnabieoot 6y agoI am not arguing in favor of Excel! I hate Excel. I don’t have it installed on my personal devices. I never use Excel unless I have to. I am saying that Excel does specific things that are widely used in industry (especially finance and industry) which are not supported by Calc and that Calc is not a good replacement for many businesses.
