It _looks_ like csvwriter.writerow() returns the number of bytes (or is it characters?) written. However, there is no documentation of this: https://docs.python.org/3.7/library/csv.html#csv.csvwriter.writerow Is this behavior part of the method's "contract"? And if so, shouldn't we document it? The same goes for csvwriter.writerows().
