What would you use to represent tabular data like a list of T-shirt orders as in the example? That should be an HTML table. Using tables for positioning is bad in front end. Using HTML tables/sections/headers for document data structure is exactly what HTML is for.

Unless it's two columnns only, tables don't work well on mobile. You end up having to undo in CSS a lot of properties that TD, TH bring by default.
