`File.byLine` overwrites the previous line's data every time it
reads a new line. If you want to store each line's data for
later use, you need to use [`byLineCopy`][1] instead.
a) What is the rationale behind not making byLineCopy the default?
b) Does not compile:

csv.CSVData!true.CSVData.parseCSV(char[] str) is not callable

c) Reminds me of the necessity to add dups here and there. And
reminds me of "helping the compiler" [1]?
