"Could someone please explain the use of display:table-cell?" Simply put (be careful, because the explanation is soooo simple it may be confusing), it's the display property of table-cells. It may very well be that no other element will ever need to have that property applied to it but table cells need to have it applied and it is around to be applied to other elements if anybody ever finds a use for it.
"Like, why wouldn't you use a table instead of using divs that act like tables and table cells?" You're right because tables and their child elements are already there for you so use those. If you want to tinker around and apply the 'table-cell' property then go for it. If you don't need it, then don't bother.
