After needing to find a small delimiter for my data format I started wondering if I could use 0x1E-0x1F?
They are part of the control codes so I thought they might do something weird?

1E and 1F were actually originally intended to be used as record and unit separators, respectively, so that’s actually not a bad idea. The description for those fields in the article you linked even mentions that they’re suited for use as field delimiters.
