I totally get what you are saying and for some of them, like the Beretta Firearms table, I agree, it isnt necessary. BUT, when you start to get multiple "see also" tables added to a page, or you have something as large as teh AK-47 template, I think it is nice not to have that giant thing there if you aren't interested in looking at it.

Also, with the collapsible tables, there is a trick to not making them look weird. Basically you need to add a header row that spans all 4-5 columns. You also need to give it a defined size. I am going to do one section on the M1911 page just to show you as a test and we can go from there.
