Second time around does the charm. I see the hidden "-" in the scientific 
notation is causing this. Thanks!

That doesn't make sense to me. Can you explain how that is intended behaviour? 
I just changed from '-' to '?' in the lineterminator.

It is quoting the values when line terminator contains any of the special 
characters. Exactly like documented.

[issue27663] Inconsistent CSV Writer Behaviour

[G Young]

New submission from G Young:

When writing scientific notation to CSV with custom line-terminators, the 
behaviour is inconsistent depending on the line-terminator you use.

In the file provided, two different line-terminator result in one quoting the 
number as a string and the other not. IMO the second example is correct, but I 
don't understand why the behaviours should be any different.
