Why isn’t there a decent file format for tabular data?
One major limitation with quoted values that can this contain record delimiters (as opposed to escaping the delimiters) is that it stops systems from being able to load records in parallel.
Some systems ban embedded record delimiters, for this reason.
Btw, I’ve (previously) included at least one of your essays in “awesome csv” list at GitHub. https://github.com/secretGeek/AwesomeCSV#essays
There’s a few specs mentioned there too — is one of those the spec you worked on?

So far it's just a python library, but I'm planning on adding editor plugins at least for vim, vscode and maybe emacs, libraries for additional languages, and maybe some cli commands for it.
One distinction from the OP is the delimiters also include a tab (for fields) or newline (for records) by default (but not in "compact" mode). That has the benefit that the files are at least readable with editors and pagers that aren't aware of the format.
