Why Nick talked about thead and tfoot and not tobody?

I noticed that Nick in the HTML course talked about thead and tfoot elements and didn't talk about tbody elements. Why? Is this considering the best practice? (to omit the tbody?)

There's nothing wrong with:

<tbody>

(assuming you didn't mean "tobody" ?)

In fact, in the table video referenced here: ( http://teamtreehouse.com/library/websites/accessibility/web-apps/tables ) he mentions it but never expands on it. He says: <p> After this, you might also want to add a thead, tbody, and tfoot tags, but in general, this table is much better than what we started with. <p>
