/* ---------- tables ----------
   Andy, 10 Sep: "check all the tables … some locations spread over lines so the
   columns need to be a bit wider."

   The cause: `.doc-body { max-width: 44em }` caps the whole article column at a
   reading measure, which is right for prose and wrong for a four- or five-column
   data table — the locations table was rendering at 748px with its first column
   at 122px, so every place name wrapped. Twelve tables across the site are 4+
   columns and all of them were squeezed the same way.

   Fix: the measure moves off the column and onto the prose children, so
   paragraphs still read at 44em and tables get the full grid column (~950px).
   The first column of a data table also stops wrapping, because it holds a
   place name or a date that should never break. */
