Tables should avoided unless data needs to be presented in such format. Using tables nowdays on anything but key:value pairs is just not good layout/design practice.

The XC templates code is old. Very old. Even their newer responsive design was done by mostly adapting css to existing templates instead the other way around. They do not want to re-write the templates and create one brand new up to date and html5 standards structure.

If you do understand the templates and html you can get rid of probably 50% of their code and improve them a lot. Not only SEO but site structure will improve not to mention smaller footprint for css and files.

Lots of js code can also be omitted due to html5 features.

So don't just settle for a simple setting in this table-based template. It is still bad although it may work for you.
