It depends on what you mean by "grid". A data grid has relationships
between rows and columns, and is tabular. If you're thinking of the
general design principle of grid layouts, that's not tabular. In your
case there was a direct relationship between the radio button and its
corresponding label, as well as the buttons as a group. Granted, it
could have been laid out various ways, but a table is not wrong for
this, IMO.

There are plenty of CSS templates with varying numbers of columns.
