v2 table wrapped in figure replaced with utility class .overflow-auto

[hglbrg]

I noticed recently that ye olde

<figure>
  <table>
    (...)
  </table>
</figure>

which used to make overflowing tables scrollable on the x-axis has now been replaced with

<table class="overflow-auto">
  (...)
</table>

I am just curious as to why this change was made, what reasoning went behind it etc. I am not arguing but rather trying to learn.

I feel like the old solution that was something like this:

figure:has(table){
  overflow: auto;
}

worked pretty much flawlessly but since you made the change there must have been something I am not considering or thinking about and I would like to learn more about this by asking for your thoughts as to why the change was made.

I can see how it makes more semantic sense that a table is a table and a table also being a figure would be a stretch to assume naturally that it is a scrollable table. But I liked the syntax and for now I do add my own CSS to support it.
