... In addition, it occurred to me this evening that there's functionality in the csv module I don't think anybody uses. ... I'm also not aware that anyone really uses the Sniffer class, though it does provide some useful functionality should you need to analyze random CSV files.
I used Sniffer quite heavily for my last contract. The client had multiple multigig csv's which needed deduplicating, but they were all from different sources and therefore in different formats. It would have cost me many more hours without the Sniffer. Please keep it. <:)
