Ruby. Python. Several JavaScript NPM packages. Part of the problem here is the standards around CSVs aren’t consistent, nor are they well respected.

Things get even weirder when you throw non-Latin characters in the mix. May such parsers predate widespread use of UTF-8.

Python I believe was the issue in my case.
