Currently, the table has columns for each background, the features gained, the skill proficiencies granted, and tags. All good (except, personally, the Tags seem pretty useless, but that could very well just be me).
In the 2024 rules, ability score increases were moved out of Species and are now part of Backgrounds. As such, a column indicating which ability scores can be increased would be very helpful.
It would also be nice to add a column for Tools, indicating which tool proficiencies are granted by each background. And, while this may 'crowd the page' a bit too much, it would also be nice if classes which use the listed ability scores as their primary ability/abilities were also listed. Further, if all of a classes' primary abilities could be increased by a background, that class could be listed in bold.
This would make it much easier to find a background that suits the character concept you have in mind when building your character.

So something like this:
