Had a try, there didn't seem to be an option to collect the data in csv/spreadsheet. If there was I missed it.
Why don't you just use Google forms + sheets?
Otherwise CSV is just a text file, so you just need something that can edit Dropbox text files.

I ended up running with Google Forms and using rclone to sync the data to Dropbox. I use rclone anyway for backups, so should have thought of this in the first place.
I continue to use Google products but I am determined not to rely on any of their services in case they "go away". I know with this solution I will always have my data.

Not sure about how polished of a solution you’re looking for, or if you’re on iOS, but I bet you could cook up an iOS shortcut to create a new file and drop it into Dropbox or iCloud. Another script could aggregate those into a single CSV?
Does anyone know of a simple solution?
