So what you're saying, moth, is we're all wrong because we see and note the flaws in the system and you're right because you don't think it's flawed if you view CSS and not being used for design but as an add on to the communication of data.
I can see where you're coming from but aren't you forgetting that CSS is about styling the mark-up and by styling we're really focusing on designing and layout. So, as designers it is legitimate to note that it doesn't work in quite the way we expected it to and more importantly as a method used before (ie Tables) did.
If you think CSS is faultless I suggest you haven't really used it enough or pushed it enough and I do think you're on your own with that view. However I would agree that learning the how's and why's will assist in creating most of the designs people want to produce. Nevertheless, what most people, except moth, think is that there are some things it was just easier to do using a table.
