Dear WhatsApp Development Team,

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention a comment in your codebase that I found somewhat hurtful and hope can be reconsidered for future versions.

Specifically, the comment in question is:

# Then convert the ugly CSV to slightly less ugly JSON

# Then convert the ugly CSV to slightly less ugly JSON

As someone who deeply appreciates both CSV and JSON formats for their unique strengths and versatility, this comment struck a personal chord with me.

CSV files, in particular, are a staple in data management and analysis due to their simplicity, ease of use, and wide compatibility across various platforms and tools. Similarly, JSON is beloved for its flexibility and readability in data interchange. Both formats are powerful in their own right and serve critical functions in the world of data processing and programming.

While I understand the comment might have been made in jest or out of frustration with the complexity of data transformation tasks, it inadvertently conveys a dismissive attitude towards CSV files. This can be disheartening for those of us who take pride in utilizing and advocating for these formats.

I kindly ask that you consider revising the comment to reflect a more neutral or positive tone. For example:

# Convert the CSV to JSON for easier data manipulation

This change would maintain the intent of the comment while promoting a more inclusive and respectful attitude towards the tools and formats many developers hold dear.

Thank you for your understanding and for the great work you do at Meta and WhatsApp. I appreciate your consideration of this feedback and look forward to seeing the continued evolution of your excellent projects.

Best regards,
0rshemesh
