2 of the processes which need to be performed after the empty rows are deleted are deleting any empty columns, and resizing the table to the original width (there are more things which will need to be done to some of the tables after those processes too).

I may just keep the tableExists function I have. It may not be proper programming practices, but it is simple, and it works. I was hoping there was a built-in way, similar to testing for Nothing.
