[My response](https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2022Jun/0006.html): The attributes are deprecated because they are presentational markup (which doesn't belong in HTML), but CSS properties are not deprecated (because presentational instructions is what CSS is for). If we were to apply `order` to table columns, I think using <col> and <colgroup> for it would make perfect sense. The main open question I think is what happens to colspanning cells: * Suppose we have a cell spanning two columns. If their order is reversed, is that cell still spanning the same two columns? * What if the first column is reordered to be the 5th column (non-adjacent)? -- GitHub Notification of comment by fantasai Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/7340#issuecomment-1149163216 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
