That can be a useful method, but won't work if you have text on the left or the right that extends past the middle of the page. See screenshot below.

The top shows the text with a right-tab set at the right margin.
The middle one shows the same text using a table, with borders showing.
The bottom shows the same text in the table without the borders.
For many purposes, the table is a good solution.
