   ###### What is the issue?
   Removing default column width (COLUMN_SIZE_MAP.md) in favor of undefined 
might cause inconsistent column sizing behavior across different table 
instances.
   
   
   ###### Why this matters
   Tables without explicitly set column sizes may display erratically or 
inconsistently depending on content, leading to poor user experience in cases 
where consistent column widths are expected.
   
   ###### Suggested change ∙ *Feature Preview*
   Consider maintaining a default width or implementing a minimum width to 
ensure consistent table appearance:
   
   ```typescript
   width: column.size ? COLUMN_SIZE_MAP[column.size] : COLUMN_SIZE_MAP.sm,
   ```
   
   or
   
   ```typescript
   width: column.size ? COLUMN_SIZE_MAP[column.size] : undefined,
   minWidth: COLUMN_SIZE_MAP.sm,
   ```

   ### Fixed cell width may truncate important content <sub>![category 
Functionality](https://img.shields.io/badge/Functionality-0284c7)</sub>
   
   <details>
     <summary>Tell me more</summary>
   
   ###### What is the issue?
   Hard-coded maximum width of 320px for table cells could truncate important 
information that requires more space to be displayed properly.
   
   
   ###### Why this matters
   Users may miss critical data or context due to content being cut off, 
particularly in cases where the cell content legitimately needs more than 320px 
to display properly.
   
   ###### Suggested change ∙ *Feature Preview*
   Consider making the max-width configurable through props or using a relative 
unit:
   ```typescript
   // Add to TableCollectionProps interface
   cellMaxWidth?: string | number;
   
   // In the styled component
   .ant-table-cell {
     max-width: ${props => props.cellMaxWidth || '320px'};
     ...
   }
   ```
