The ASCII control characters do not appear well or are editable in a plain text editor.

I did always use TSV and I think the original use of CSV could have used that.

But TSV would still have many issues.

What issues would TSV have? As commonly implemented (for example, the default output format of Postgres and MySQL), in TSV, tab and newline are escaped, not quoted.
