I like the format description, thanks. Sounds like something I might implement some day for fun! The reason I still don't like this is because most of the time I'm sharing csv is to a jira ticket or an email, or to customer and customer insists it needs to be csv. When customer wants csv there is nothing I can do. But in other cases I see this CSV file. So it's visual clarity is important. CSV has all the problems you listed, but TSV (and similar, such as your format) has the short coming of relying on an invisible separator. And worse, the width of tab is undefined, undecided. I don't know what the best trade-of... Maybe we need better tooling so frontends show CSV/TSV et al as separated by cells.
