I agree this table will look better and more readable if it's top-aligned. |

Not sure where to throw it, but the following worked well for that page, imo. The padding isn't necessary, but I thought it helped readability a little bit. I didn't see .ModTable th, .ModTable td {
vertical-align: baseline;
text-align: left;
padding: 1rem;
}

Bringing over my two cents from the duplicate issue. Alternating the row's background colour is another way to go. Maybe even a combination of the two for maximum accessibility!

What did you do?
Visit https://go.dev/ref/mod#environment-variables
What did you see happen?
The table of environment variables has no cell borders and the content is vertically centered. This makes it needlessly difficult to understand which variable corresponds to which description, and where one description ends and the next begins.
What did you expect to see?
If the table is going to have no borders, then I think the content should be top-aligned.
I'd expect that other tables in the Go documentation probably have this issue as well.
