I do feel that there is a "missing" simple/basic text format which is somewhere in between csv and json/yaml. csv has no hierarchy while json/yaml are horribly unreadable for tabular data as it has no concept of columns (see https://csvjson.com/csv2json https://csvjson.com/csv2json as an example). Maybe such a thing exists but I haven't seen it.
