So, for long lines of text, they'll cause the first label column to have decreased width, wrap, and look inconsistent. I had to manually linebreak and flow them. It's not quite 100% on an iPad in portrait now, but it's close.
Done deal now, but something to keep in mind if you want to convert a list to a table.
edit: on a completely unrelated sidenote, a strategy/TD game on my iPad (Kingdom Rush: Origins) got an update with a new hero character, a fallen angel. Named Lilith. "Noooooooo!"
edit2: added Deirdre's coin with Tami's theory and Dina's etymology to Anduriel.

I especially like how you used colors and alignment. Here's one of my attempts at using tables.
Jim's Author/book recommendations
The only formatting I might have done differently is that since the list is so long, compartmentalize each numbered section into a spoiler code so that they can be expanded or compressed individually.

Did that for the intro but need to reflow everything for the rest because the spoiler tags add horizontal padding.
FYI, I found the Unicode non-breaking space will prevent wrapping in these tables. It is the character " " instead of " ".
megarows:
@Serack: Done (spoiler tags / text reflow). As yet another caveat, the Unicode nbsps revert to plain spaces when you edit and have to be reinserted, so I'd recommend saving in an external text editor if you ever go that route.

Thanks for the info, I've archived it in my own personal "sandbox" (literally I have it labeled that) where I hash out stuff like that for forum posts.
I would save it in my official forum advice topic, except you are the only other person I have ever seen that was interested in tables, and that topic is an "FAQ"
