CSV files are terrible, but I love them. I love sites that offer an "Export to CSV" option, because I know I can take that export and start working with it immediately. I can give that CSV file to my Dad, who can open it in Excel, or I can run a single command[0] to import it into a sqlite database.
It is a lowest common denominator format. That type of thing is incredibly hard to kill unless you can replace it with something that is simpler. Good luck with that.
