I once worked on maintaining an accounting package that exported to csv. At one point there was a bug where if the notation for a transaction included a single unmatched quote, the rest of the exported data silently disappeared.
The depressing part wasn’t finding this bug (in a very mature codebase), it was painstakingly explaining what the problem was and how to fix it.
