W3C hasn't change how raw tables display since tables were invented.

Of course. table { margin-left: auto; margin-right-auto; } for example.

You're also assuming Brooke (he/she) is talking about the display in the
resultant web page, in the browser. We still don't know if the reference
is to the web page, or in the Composer composition source code.
I still think we should confirm which is correct before recommending some
CSS to add.
Tables in a web page by default display at the left margin of their
containers. It's always been that way.
