31: What is the Role of Tables & Matrix's in Power BI?

Note: Many of the guys have been working to still get episodes out despite vacation plans, we apologize for the spotty audio in some segments. We pre-recorded this week episodes due to vacations - no live chat or talk about the August 2021 Desktop release.

Let's face it: Tables & Matrix's are the necessary evil in Power BI. Users need it, pro's hate the experience, yet they are still one of the most widely used visuals in a Power BI Report. Sometimes we have to the play the game "Will it Table?" to evaluate if the experience is worth it. They play an important role in our reports, but the load time can disrupt or even distract users. So where do they fit in the overall experience for a user?
