I'm curious. Did you ask it to use tables and no CSS?

In 1996, We had only css1. Ask it to use tables to do this, perhaps.

We actually had a myriad of competing specs. CSS proper wasn't released until december 1996.

Any names for the competing specs? Maybe i could try re-prompting with that direction.

There were specs competing for adoption, but only tables (the old way) and CSS were actually adopted by browsers. So no point trying to use some other positioning technique.
