That is precisely why I put "normal" in quotes.

Nevertheless, if there is a way to escape anything at all, usually it is the quotation mark, and usually it is escaped by doubling. Pretty much any other scheme is very unlikely to be properly interpreted in this context.

Yes indeed. To make it easy to parse everything has to be quoted. If some things are quoted then you can’t just split on comma because for example:m

    “, is a cat”,”, is my boyfriend”,123
etc.
