I wasn't familiar with RFC 4180. (Or, quite possibly, I forgot I used to be familiar with it.) Note that at the bottom of the BNF definition of the file structure is the definition of TEXTDATA: TEXTDATA = %x20-21 / %x23-2B / %x2D-7E That pretty explicitly excludes NUL bytes (%x00 I think). I'd still like someone load my nul.csv file into Excel and report back what it does (or doesn't) do with it.
