Well, you basically recoded the theme and dropped all tables in elkarte (in favor of lists, which is SOOOO good IMO), which is the same thing they did in 2.1. I can't do the same because I am alone working on my forum, but at least I have made those pester tables somewhat responsive. However, the only really efficient way to make them responsive is to... Partially drop them XD

But you are talking about tables used to give "shape" to the page, and that's of course "not right", but you can't just "scrap any table out there because tables are evil".
Tables are necessary when you want to present tabular data. That's their reason to exit.
If you want to publish a set of data from an Excel spreadsheet, tables is the way to go. It doesn't make sense to create lists to present data that are a table.
Then of course there are all sort of tricks to have list work the same as tables, but that's as much as bad as use tables for everything.
And of course there are edge cases, like the members list. That could either be a table or a list, one or the other doesn't really make any difference (semantically).
