In my experience, this is only a problem when you are using Excel. It's ridiculous how bad Excel is at handling CSVs, I really cannot comprehend it. If you use LibreOffice all your problems magically disappear.



I find out that Excel follows windows locale, you can change the decimal and the thousand separator on windows, and it will affect how excel exports and reads CSVs.
