How coherent is the structure — do we gain a progression of data by traversing across the columns? Does the ordering of rows and columns mean something explicit such that a single point within the table can be cross-referenced? Or is it merely that the data happens to fall into columns because we’re still thinking of it visually? I think it’s the latter, and that presenting the data in this way would be innacurate and confusing.
