Hah! Half the time people will even do silly things like cat together multiple CSVs from different sources.

If blobs got consistently hex encoded, that would also be nice. Base64 is common, and there are multiple types of base64 encoding people use too.

Personally, I tend to think of CSV imports as something you can expect to have a ‘yield’ - and it’s never 100%.

yea so just do BSV or bell separated file. We already have "\n" newline separated files. We just need a cel seperator, '\b'. Problem solved.

On the plus side, accidentally cat’ng it to your terminal will be pleasantly musical.
