True, but you can use a * or | or / or \ or some unused character. In Excel you can define the separator. The gist is that the the software is set up to handle 16 fields or arguments. Fields will be defined as time goes on, but the user might want to use the last few for own descriptions or for manipulation by other software. Keeping all the tool info in one place and in plain text sounds like a good idea.
