3. An eye soothing page designing, it attracts all the visitors and compels them to visit again.
4. Browser friendly website, it means a website that can be viewed same on all popular browsers.
When designer codes site architecture through table tag, then a website cannot be as light as in Div in terms of weight of the pages, so undoubtedly it takes much time in downloading and uploading also. Because table exists physically on the site, and when anyone open the site then browsers download all tables first. When it comes to Div, it doesn't happen with Div. Div tags are CSS based containers, a designer uses IDs and Classes to define and design all Div and structure.
You must know, a CSS based site is much better in terms of Search Engine Optimization (SEO) also.
