HTML is flawed at every level:

It's design is flawed- rather than having a minimal set of tags they have a tag for everything and most people use only a fraction of total tags.

It's implementation is flawed- no two browsers render HTML the same way.

The way people learn HTML is flawed- some people learn to use inline styles, some people use br's to delineate paragraphs, some people build pages without head tags.

In conclusion, fuck it, use tables.
