You are getting downvoted to hell but I can see what you're meaning. Generally if someone hands you a CSV file there is no guarantee that something mental isn't happening as there is no "CSV" standard. So you're saying that when your task is "process the client's CSV file" you might not necessarily be able to rely on a library handling it correctly, and that you should prepare to get your hands dirty (perhaps hacking together something with a regex or two).
