> I'm pretty sure most devs are going to use whatever CSV library that comes with their language. When that breaks, it's generally not a simple fix. Call me a yak-shaver, but in every language I've worked with I've written my own csv parsing library when I needed one. It's such a trivial thing for the majority cases (varying of delimiters, line-endings, ascii/uft8, quoting, escaping, and embedding of delimiters/line-endings) that it takes barely no time at all after you've done it once in another language. Of course there are edge cases and special cases depending upon specific workloads, but if your team has it's own parser (which is a small amount of obvious code) then it does indeed usually become a simple fix. Sounds good using someone else's library, but below a certain complexity it's rarely worth it in the medium to long term except for when doing proof of concept or demo code, or if the domain space is complex.
