It may be that most of what I've done did not involve tabular data and I get into a particular pattern of using divs, then when tabular data comes along, I don't really think about what I'm going to use to display the data. I very well could be suffering from the swinging of the pendulum the other way: So many people say that it's an evil of incredible magnitude to use tables for layouts, it becomes very easy to let it swing too far the other way and not use tables at all. Some developers don't have that problem, but some do. Finding the middle ground is often a considerable struggle.
