That’s really interesting, I wonder if this simplifies down to “you want CSV with column typing and a typesafe CSV editor”, as you note, JSONs win is the lack of issues with typing, and CSV really isn’t complicated at all except for that property. JSON is just a row with keys that are column.

I definitely want that! Parquet is great for data interchange, but it's not easily hand-editable. I wonder if there's an open niche in the software world for an Excel-like data entry and manipulation tool, but with stronger/stricter typing of cells and columns, and with direct export to and import from SQLite and Parquet.
