Why is the Bootstrap grid layout preferable to an HTML table?

Question

[Note: for those who may be confusing this question with \"why not use tables for HTML layout\", I am not asking that question. The question I\'m asking is why is a grid layout

Answer 1

if you just use tables i think you will miss out on alot of flexibility in re-sizing your document for mobile/tablets without having to make a separate page for each device. once your table structure is defined all you can really do is zoom in and out.
