Not sure what you mean by "table is not accessible". Properly formatted and constructed tables are accessible (tested in Firefox and Chrome on Windows/Narrator and macOS/VoiceOver). See for example tables in Nodes section - they are perfectly accessible and navigable with VO/Narrator/JAWS. The question is: is table a proper format for this particular type of information? If yes - we just need to properly construct a table - with headers and such. If not - then we should stick with the list. Using outer table just for the sake of formatting is obviously incorrect - it will add confusion to the accessibility output.
