    For SEO purposes I think the real value to not having tables is that using div's will reduce your code to content ratio. Who knows how much actual SEO benefit it gives you, but any bonus is worth it.

    it is said to be used on bot crawling purposes, the lighter the page the fastest the bot can crawl your site.

    tableless design will reduce the code and will increase crawling speed.if your website is using nested tables then there might be problem of slow crawling..

    Well, use DIV instead of tables and you will have a tableless design..Why it is important...Because When a google crawler come it reads your table table and table and then reach your content and a google crawler have a limited time for a web..So it slow your crawling..You can also see wordpress uses Divs...Divs are controlled by CSS right!! got the idea...
