Well, yes, but if page structure is complex (let's imagine some 5 columns, 8 
rows and all of them are somehow merged) and it is already used at the 
website, but later customer wants to have at some content area two columns 
instead of one - and it may be a pain to make it with merging only and keep 
all the colPos numbers, that were defined previously.

Nice! Didn't know that.

Thank you for the answers :)
