Obviously many Wikipedians are willing to put in some effort to make a
nice page layout. Html tables make a page more attractive and
information easier to digest.

If Karl finds html table syntax too tedious (it is tedious sometimes), I
suggest he leaves them to others to add/maintain. But restricting their
use is like a person that orders a pizza everyday and objects to other
people  still cooking their own meals.
