I think it doesn't.
Without styling it would render like this:
that looks rather nice. field name is on left side, input is on the right side. And if text is on both sides, not just inputs, then it also looks nice:
There is clear understanding where variable is, and where value is.
If you use divs it would look ok for inputs, but it would be a disaster for text:
So I think definition lists are the best way to go with such data like forums and topic lists. First item is <dt> so it is clear what part is main (forum name, or topic name), second and other items are <dd> as its a data describing item in <dt> (author, time, last post, replies).
P.S. english is not my main language and I'm terrible in explaining stuff, but I hope you get idea of what I'm talking about.

Code:
Username <input> Email <input>
Code:
Variable 1 Value 1 Variable 2 Value 2
