Re:A love letter to the CSV format by thayne on Friday March 28, 2025 @02:02PM (#43508315)
But many, perhaps most, parsers and serializers for CSV are not compliant with RFC 4180.

RFC 4180 is not an official standard. The text of the RFC itself states:

CSVs existed long before that RFC was written, and it is more a description of CSVs that are somewhat portable, not a definitive specification.
