Consider the following table. What if your user/customer wants to copy the data into their excelsheet?

So eventually, shes hating the CSS-Ps and the DIVs; because a new tag is just not helping her.
So, can we use CSS (DIV) for Tabular data?
Yes!
Should we?
No.
Why?
To enhance the user experience of your website.
Example?
Copy and paste rows to an excelsheet; From a DIV'd data and Table‘d.

So, DIV says ‘go table go’?
No.
DIV = layout
Table = data
