![Alineación a la izquierda en una tabla de descripción de variables.](https://rvso.com/image/449621/Alineaci%C3%B3n%20a%20la%20izquierda%20en%20una%20tabla%20de%20descripci%C3%B3n%20de%20variables..png)
No puedo entender por qué en el siguiente código (posiblemente necesito pulir un poco el preámbulo, lo sé), no puedo alinear las "Variables" a la izquierda. Probé diferentes soluciones pero aún así permanece centrado.
Otro problema (menor y menos importante) es que intenté cambiar el orden de las columnas, poniendo la descripción al final. Sin embargo, siempre recibo un mensaje de error. ¿Alguna idea?
