Just like with widget item views, adjustToColumns only adjusts to the currently visible content as it involves querying all the visible items for their implicit size hints and adjusting to the largest one. This is also what happens when the user double clicks on a column resize handle. Remember that table view doesn’t know the size hints of the potentially millions of items that are yet to be scrolled into view. An imperative approach lets the user decide exactly when the columns should be adjusted, which is usually right after setting the model. In addition, the user generally does not expect table view headers to expand or change while they are scrolling the table view. If this was a declarative property, you would either not have any control of exactly when to do so and the alternative would be to continuously adjust to contents during scrolling which would also carry a big performance cost.
