It's not, clearly. Modern "grid-based layout" frameworks are just the next generation of table-driven web layouts, and they're frequently shoehorned into webpages in ways that hearken back to the olden days before CSS was invented.

<div class="container"> is one of my least favorite things to see in HTML, in particular. No shit it's a container; all HTML tags are containers. HTML5 introduced all these wonderful semantic elements precisely so that we don't have to pollute HyperText documents with thousands of divs.

Also, that "text-center" class drives me to drink :)
