Ask YC: Why is YC's layout table based?
I expect that by "CSS layout", they meant "HTML which is laid out by CSS".

Even if they did, you can basically re-do the entire UI without touching the HTML if you separate presentation from it by using CSS.

I'll agree that that's the ideal, but I've also found that designers and clients are good at coming up with layouts for which it is far simpler to change the HTML than to try to contort it into the right places with CSS.
