Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue with the attached Weehawken_RightAngle_ActiveList.csv and the shown csvParser.parse call using csv-parser 2.0.4 on Node 12.18.4. Trace where the values are parsed or transformed and compare the source values with the parsed output. Done means numeric-looking CSV values such as 50, 60, and 70 are not returned with added leading zeros, while OP and PSE remain unchanged.
