Listen...
Ya want to restructure a page easily sure no prob you can do the same thing with table based layouts. Table Based Layouts are templates as well. You should know this.
No, it's not just font and text control. Media type allows you to specify an entirely different style sheet based on the type of browser that is rendering it. By switching an entirely different style sheet you can inherently change the entire site.

You could create a horizontal layout that is designed for 1500px wide. But if a mobile device is browsing it, the site could be changed to a vertical 200px wide layout with less graphics and smaller element file sizes.

That's just ONE possibility.
