Why is it recommended not to misuse tables for layout purposes in PHP?

Misusing tables for layout purposes in PHP is not recommended because it can lead to accessibility issues, slow loading times, and difficulty in maintaining the code. Instead, it is better to use CSS for layout purposes as it provides more flexibility and control over the design of the webpage. 

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <style>
        .container {
            display: grid;
            grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr;
            grid-gap: 10px;
        }
    </style>
</head>
<body>
    <div class="container">
        <div>Content 1</div>
        <div>Content 2</div>
    </div>
</body>
</html>
