You should know that "should" isn't very binding.

Headers should have as many rows as possible that contain data items for their column and data items in a row should have a header for the respective columns, but real CSV files should be assumed to have incomplete or variable length lines.

NOTHING is very binding about the CSV spec and that's the biggest problem with CSV.
