For multiline cell contents, there is rule 7, the multi line extension. Newlines are not allowed in cells otherwise, because of rule 2, it's a line based format.

I personally use it to write tabular data manually, used to define our datamodel. Because this format is editor agnostic, colleagues can easily read and edit as well. So in my case it's focus on human read/write and machine read.
