Because those are higher level functions and packages. Maybe it exists
somewhere among existing Emacs packages.
You can't expect anything you wish to be built in, that is why you

I find alignment a difficult problem, that is why using Org table and
automatica alignment, and then export to Unicode or similar, will make
nice tables for purpose of presentation.
