Ok, this might be getting very hypothetic, but I disagree. The
definition description describes the title, not the other way around.

<dt>Marge</dt>
<dd>Homer's wife</dd>

Your example would define the other way around, wouldn't it?
That's why a table would still be a valid solution.

The idea is not to avoid tables at all cost - if something is tabular
data, use a table. The idea is to avoid abusing tables for layout
purposes where a CSS construct is easier to maintain.
