I can (now) open a CSV file in Calc in iOS.

I think we can close this issue.

Thanks to the Collabora team for implementing this!

Hmm, we don't mention the csv file type in the app's Info.plist file, so I actually am a bit surprised that it is possible to open a .csv file, that it isn't "greyed out" by the document browser API.

Is there some mysterious undocumented heuristic in iOS so that if an app claims to handle .xls, it will be assumed that it can handle .csv, too, for instance? Sigh. This doesn't really make it easier to understand how exactly the file type association stuff works in iOS.

In iOS 12 you could not open .csv files, right?

I think the bug can be resolved as "INSUFFICIENTDATA" for instance. Why .csv files now work is a bit of a mystery, but let's just be glad that they do;)
